1) A trend I've noticed is that there seems to be an either-or mentality regarding abortion and maternal mortality. People tend to think that maternal mortality cannot be fixed without making abortion absolutely 100% accessible and socially acceptable, etc or that abortions are wose than maternal mortality and therefore, take all precedence in fighting them. Is it really one or the other?
2) Half the Sky made the point that most birth-complications regarding the baby getting stuck are because the mother's pelvis isn't developed enough to be large enough because she is too young. Is there any way to delay the age at which women are getting pregnant, would that be effective?
3) Out of curiosity, why do you think that Ireland has maintained such a low MMR and has such few issues with maternal mortality? Why is the US not up to those standards?
