Dr. C. Everett Koop, pediatric surgeon, former United States Surgeon General (1982-1989):
“Protection of the life of the mother as an excuse for an abortion is a smokescreen. In my 36 years in pediatric surgery I have never known of one instance where the child had to be aborted to save the mother’s life.”
