A Regional Chief Midwife wrote to staff requesting information on any women or girls who had experienced ‘complications of this process’. The letter noted there had been ‘two maternal deaths’ after taking abortion pills. One woman was found dead at home after taking a pill, the second died of sepsis ‘very quickly in the A&E department’.
