Uphold Basic Health Standards, Protect Women!
 

Board of Health,

It is unfathomable that we would NOT protect the health of women in any Clinic where they are receiving a medical procedure, especially one that can end in their death. Women and teenagers have died of infections from filthy instruments, bedding, gloves, etc. Patients have died from a lack of life saving equipment available to physicians and staff in Clinics of all kinds. HOW can we deny the right to proper care, cleanliness, and the expectation of properly sterilized equipment which otherwise will spread disease"! PLEASE stop the murder of trusting patients who have made a choice to have an abortion. You cannot leave the Industry to police itself...we have seen the results of that! Basic Medical Standards are critical to ALL environments which offer Health services of ANY kind. Richard Galloway
