The British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS) is looking into eight cases where babies aborted were over the ten-week gestation limit for which the abortion pills can now be used at home. BPAS said that the nine cases were a ‘vanishingly small’ number of the total 8,000 abortions carried out at home since the start of lockdown, representing around 0.1% of the total.*
