> The fetus aborted was 28 weeks, or 7 months, and almost certainly viable

Never surprises me that HN is full of world-class doctors who can provide a medical conclusion based simply on a news story.

Not really needed in this case. I was born with 7 months and didn't spend a night in hospital.

One needn't be a doctor to reference a common fact. Medical viability is about 23 -24 weeks, I think I learned that in high school bio. As an aside, the snark is an ugly shade and isn't appreciated.
