The effect of the Abortion Act on gynaecological work in one provincial teaching hospital is that despite an increase in patient turnover of 45% the waiting list has increased by 200%. It is suggested that the Act has had little effect on the birth rate or illegitimacy and that there may have been an increase in criminal abortion.
《堕胎法案》对某省立教学医院妇科工作的影响是,尽管患者周转率提高了45%,但等候名单却增加了200%。有人认为该法案对出生率或非婚生率几乎没有影响,而且非法堕胎情况可能有所增加。
