What is fetal viability?
In medicine, it’s the point at which a fetus can survive outside the womb. It is generally considered to be around 23 or 24 weeks, but there’s no universal consensus and some hospitals will resuscitate and actively treat babies born in the 22nd week of pregnancy. There are rare cases in which babies born at 21 weeks have survived.
Do you think lack of fetal viability before week 21 of preganancy is an acceptable reason to get an abortion? Why or why not?
