    Thanks for the definition

    I think abortion is wholly different from getting a nonviable fetus removed as it cannot develop nor live

      All fetuses are non-viable without being allowed parasitic access to the mother’s bodily resources.

        This is really the whole thing, regardless of how developed the baby is.

        Imagine a fully formed child or adult with a liver problem. Science comes up with some way that someone of similar genetics can be physically connected to them and filter their blood for them and keep them alive while they wait for a transplant. Should the person who can physically sustain another person’s body be legally required to do so?

        So far, less invasive versions of this say no: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McFall_v._Shimp

        You can’t even force dead bodies to donate organs.
