Defender of research on living aborted babies Dr. Kurt Hirschhorn, then an advisory board member of the March of Dimes and a researcher at New York’s Mount Sinai hospital and medical school:
“It is not possible to make this fetus into a child, therefore we can consider it as nothing more than a piece of tissue.”
Victor Cohn, “Live Fetus Research Debated,” The Washington Post, April 10, 1973
Quoted in Suzanne M Rini. Beyond Abortion: a Chronicle of Fetal Experimentation. (Rockford, Illinois: Tan Books and Publishers, 1988) 52
Experiments on living aborted babies were once legal in the US. They can still be done in some foreign countries.
