The many countries where abortion is basically banned

Currently, the Constitution of the country gives mothers and fetus equal "life rights" and prohibits this procedure unless it is necessary to save the lives of pregnant women. However, if a voter decides to cancel the eighth fix, there is a possibility that this week will change as well.

Even if this happens, the legislators still have to draft a new law on whether abortion is still being regulated and how to do it. But the referendum on Friday is the first step.

Ireland's current abortion law is one of the most severe abortion laws in the world. There are more rigorous procedures in only 4 countries, in both cases prohibiting procedures

The law of El Salvador may be the most severe. In that Catholic country, it is illegal to conduct abortion under any circumstances, even if the mother's life is in danger. Women with abortion or even abortion may face up to 30 years imprisonment; according to these regulations, more than 100 women have been prosecuted

The rules of Nicaragua are equally strict - even if life is in danger, women can not do abortion. However, the severe penalties they face in violating the rules are obviously not that strict.

Chile once banned all abortion, but in 2017 relaxed the law. If pregnancy threatens life, the fetus can not survive, or if pregnancy is caused by rape, the woman may end abortion. At the same time, the Brazilian legislators are considering a new law prohibiting access to all abortion, even if rape and women are in danger.

98% of the population of Malta is recognized as a Catholic, and is the only totally banned country in the EU. As expected, the Vatican City is not a Member State of the EU but is forbidden.

According to the Gutmacher Institute, 6% of the world's birthable age of 64 billion women is completely banned.

There is relatively little ban on abortion in one country. But it does not mean that women can easily receive programs in most places. In most countries, there are at least a few restrictions on access to abortion.

The report by the Gutmacher Institute in 2018 investigated the legal environment for abortion in 2017. They acknowledged that only 39 countries allowed abortion if it was necessary to save women's lives. 36 people also allowed abortion to protect mother's health. In the other 24 countries, we clearly define the threat to women's mental health as the reason for legal abortion. If you can not bring up children, there are more than a dozen who give women the right to abortion.

Only 60 countries provide legal access to safe abortion. Most of these places lie in developed countries.

However, evidence suggests that this situation is changing. Between 2000 and 2017, 28 countries changed the abortion law. In addition to one case, they make it easier for women to accept abortion. The figure below shows how Guttmacher changes law (and norms).

Some countries that legitize abortion (Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands etc) have lower abortion rates than many countries that do illegal activities. This is because countries that prohibit abortion often ban or severely restrict access to contraceptives and sex education. It can be safe, legal and rare, if abortion is a series of action options for family planning that women (and men) can take. Many people oppose abortion in a religious setting. Life is sacred and starts with the concept (based on this argument). Free access to abortion may encourage people to see it as a form of contraception. If the scan indicates that the fetus is "wrong" sex, "selective abortion" is also possible, parents will cease pregnancy and so on. The best way to prevent this unethical abuse is to restrict access to abortion.

Abortion law and its enforcement are fluctuating at all ages. In many Western countries of the 20th century abortion rights movement abolished abortion prohibition. Abortion is still legal in most parts of the western part, but this legitimacy is often questioned by the Pro-Life community. The Indian Vedas and Sumati regulations reflect concerns about the preservation of three upper class male species and the religious court has forced evictions of pastors who provided various confession and abortion to women. The only evidence of the abortion's death penalty in ancient law can be found in Assyrian law, Assura, c. This applies only to women who have aborted their husband's wishes, 1075 BC. The first recorded evidence of abortion came from Egypt's Evers papyrus in 1550 BC.
