The crime committed in the Oleśnica infirmary at the phase of improvement close the minute of birth prompted the Polish Society of Gynecologists and Obstetricians to formulate an authoritative question addressed to the Minister of wellness of Isabella Leschina.
The professional organization of doctors who are tasked with caring for pregnant mothers and their offspring has asked for a consequence to whether it is possible to "interrupt pregnancy after 24 weeks erstwhile the fetus is possibly capable of life but the wellness or life of a female is at risk". The president of the organization Prof. Piotr Sieroszewski told the Polish Press Agency that "there is no abortion above 24 weeks and there is no childbirth". Meanwhile, the kid killed by Dr. Gizela Jagielska by injection into the heart of potassium chloride was 36 weeks old. The pretext to this disgusting act was a prenatal diagnosis of bone fractures.
Following the removal by the Constitutional Court in October 2020 of a eugenic premise of suspicion of serious malformations of the fetus, abortionists may inactive trust on cases of pregnancy arising as a consequence of a prohibited act and "a threat to the wellness or life of a woman".
In the case of the first condition, the legislator clearly points out that ‘continuation’ is possible until its 12th week; in the case of the second, there is no specified word until the expiry of which the kid can be killed by law.
In writing to min. The PTGiP pointed out that ‘Article 4a in paragraph 2 — in relation to the lifted embryopathological condition — marked the time limit of the procedure until the fetus achieved the ability to live independently outside the pregnant woman’.
Therefore, the Management Board of PTGiP agrees with the view expressed, for example, in the Medical Law system, that, erstwhile the kid has achieved the ability to live independently outside the mother's body and after there is simply a condition in the form of a threat to her life or health, the alleged abortion procedure, nevertheless completely legal, cannot trust on the deliberate killing of the fetus.
In their position, experts conclude that the conduct of a doctor performing a ‘procurement’ may be assessed in the light of Article 152(3) of the Criminal Code, according to which ‘who, with the consent of a woman, interrupts her pregnancy erstwhile the kid has attained the ability to live independently outside the body of a pregnant woman, is sentenced to imprisonment from 6 months to 8 years.’
The Society stressed the request to ‘clearly confirm’ this argument.
– We ask this on behalf of all doctors in Poland. We ask the Minister to usage her lawyers to find what can be done and what can not be done after 24 weeks of pregnancy, erstwhile we are already dealing with a fetus that can last on its own. We are a state of law and we cannot go against the law – said prof. Sieroszewski. At this point, he abused the “all doctors”. Many doctors in Poland inactive do not consider killing children conceived due to their loyalty to their vocation and conscience.
– We anticipate it to be clearly stated or Article 152 pairs. 3 The penal code refers to the situation of abortion after week 24 and whether it is legal to euthanize the fetus. But can we make the abortion limit clear to the 23rd week, which to the judgement of the Constitutional Tribunal was mandatory and most consistent with medical logic said the president of PTGiP.
Professor Sieroszewski believes that abortion of very late pregnancy is only justified if the defects of the fetus origin the kid to be incapable to last on its own. This is, for example, a non-chamber situation, a patient with an uneducated brain part of the head.
– The word “abortion” comes from Latin; “abortus” means abortion. We have a miscarriage of 23 weeks of pregnancy and so abortion. Over 24 weeks there is no abortion, and childbirth – said Prof. Sieroszewski.
The president of PTGiP besides serves as the Head of the 1st Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics and the Clinic of Pregnancy Pathology and Gynecology of the Medical University of Lodz. That's where a pregnant patient went with a kid with congenital bone fractures. The specialist consulted her obstetrically.
– That baby would be able to function, it was 36 weeks pregnant. It weighed almost 2 kilos, was in good intrauterine condition. Very many children with broken bones live well after birth, are completely intellectually efficient. Polish laws explicitly forbid killing specified a child said the gynecologist.
He told that he had offered the patient a C-section due to her mediocre intellectual state and taking care of the kid with a high-specialized pediatric care. The female refused to sign off on her own request from the hospital.
The patient was influenced by organisations tormenting in Poland by killing unborn children. She went to a infirmary in Oleśnica, where bloody “treatments” are carried out in cases of rejection from another facilities.
Dr. Gizela Jagielska, who injected a death injection into the heart of a nine-month-old boy, argued that it was legal.
– Medical reasons spoke for this. According to the advice of the planet wellness Organization and the global Federation of Gynecologists and Obstetricians of FIGO, to which PTGiP belongs, abortion is simply a process which results in the transportation of dead and not living. Abortion is not the same as induction of childbirth or execution of an imperial cut with medical instructions. The definition of abortion is that we want to get abortion or childbirth dead. In fact, in Polish law there is no definition of abortion Dr. Jagielska said.
She besides referred to the opinion on the usage of potassium chloride by national consultant for perinatology, Prof. Mirosław Wielgosia. – In response, I received a letter in which the consultant indicated that the patient should be offered all possible abortion methods. Therefore, this is what we do, and the patient decides – she explained.
The case of killing a kid in Oleśnica is dealt with by the local territory prosecutor who initiated an investigation into carrying out alleged abortion in violation of the law. specified actions were confirmed by the spokesperson of the Wrocław territory Attorney's Office, Karolina Stocka-Mycek. Dr. Jagielska told PAP that she had not received any authoritative information from the D.A.
The Ministry of wellness did not answer the Polish Press Agency's question about the consequence to the PTGiP letter.
