    That’ll make it 200% if they did

      You can’t have a higher than 100% death rate, that means more people died than were involved in what happened

      By reasonable definition that’s 1 death: the mother

      By your own poor definition it’s 2: mother and fetus

      So where are we getting extra from?

        The fundamental core issue is: do we count the foetus as a life? If so, there’s no such thing as a “safe abortion”

          We do not, simple as, because it’s not

          That wouldn’t magically change the death rate, though, which was my point, don’t change the subject. If you’re not smart enough to understand basic math I’m not sure we should even pretend to respect your opinions on things more complicated than that, like basic science

            Science points to a foetus being a life- whether or not we value that life is a philosophical, moral and ethical issue. Biological, Physical and Chemical science isn’t the answer to everything.
