Microcephaly is not typically diagnosed until the late second or the third trimester, and in manystates, women cannot obtain a legal abortion after 24 weeks unless her life or her health is at risk.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>To contrast, the poll authors say, they also asked about attitudes toward late-term abortion in a separate poll not related to the Zika virus. The results of both are a striking contrast:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/news\/disturbing-new-poll-americans-support-late-term-abortion-zika-virus\/screen-shot-2016-08-07-at-10-04-20-pm\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-98779\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-large wp-image-98779\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Screen-Shot-2016-08-07-at-10.04.20-PM-700x218.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2016-08-07 at 10.04.20 PM\" width=\"474\" height=\"148\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Screen-Shot-2016-08-07-at-10.04.20-PM-700x218.png 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Screen-Shot-2016-08-07-at-10.04.20-PM-300x94.png 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Screen-Shot-2016-08-07-at-10.04.20-PM-768x239.png 768w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Screen-Shot-2016-08-07-at-10.04.20-PM.png 1700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The poll reported a partisan difference in responses:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">72% of Democrats compared to 48% of Republicans in favor of legal abortion after 24 weeks in the Zika virus scenario. This reflects a substantial rise in support among both parties as compared to views about late-term abortion in general, where 34% of Democrats and\u00a0 only 12% of Republicans support abortion after 24 weeks.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Senator <a href=\"http:\/\/www.politico.com\/states\/florida\/story\/2016\/08\/rubio-no-abortions-for-zika-infected-women-104555\">Marco Rubio said Saturday<\/a> he does not support abortions\u00a0for pregnant women with the Zika virus.

And when you present it in the context of Zika or any prenatal condition, it\u2019s a difficult question and a hard one. But if I\u2019m going to err, I\u2019m going to err on the side of life.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>However, the results of this poll show a disturbing trend of a culture that devalues life when it may not be &#8220;perfect.&#8221; As <a href=\"\/news\/abortion-activists-use-zika-virus-fears-push-abortions\/\">Live Action News reported<\/a>, the media has used the Zika virus to strike fear in the hearts of people to push a pro-abortion agenda. In <a href=\"\/news\/abortion-activists-use-zika-virus-fears-push-abortions\/\">truth<\/a>, &#8220;For most people, the virus only causes mild symptoms, but in pregnant women, it can cause their babies to be born with microcephaly, a birth defect that causes babies to have developmental disabilities and small heads.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But what if a baby <em>is<\/em> born with microcephaly? Does the condition make\u00a0baby any less a person with value? Live Action News&#8217;s Danny David reported on 24-year-old Brazilian journalist Ana Carolina Caceres, who has microcephaly and has made it her mission to advocate for persons with her condition. Caceres <a href=\"\/news\/brazilian-journalist-condemns-push-for-zika-related-abortions\/\">said<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u2026 [T]he health minister\u2026 said that Brazil would have a \u201cdamaged generation\u201d because of microcephaly.

While the\u00a0diagnosis wasn&#8217;t easy to embrace, Gwen Hartley\u00a0<a href=\"\/news\/mom-of-two-girls-with-microcephaly-we-love-our-life\/\">said<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">We were devastated initially, but this soon passed as we realized that this was the same child that we waited nearly five years to conceive, the same child that we wanted desperately, and the same child that we loved with everything in us, regardless of the size of her head.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The facts about Zika and its dangers have been greatly exaggerated as well. <a href=\"\/news\/4-key-facts-about-the-zika-virus-birth-defects-and-abortion\/\">Live Action reported in March<\/a> about the facts and myths of Zika, including the fact that in two nations known for high microcephaly numbers, the link between Zika and\u00a0microcephaly has not <a href=\"\/news\/4-key-facts-about-the-zika-virus-birth-defects-and-abortion\/\">been proven<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The scientific community is still uncertain about the link between the virus and microcephaly; as of today, it is only <i>strongly suspected<\/i>.

Some abortion advocates insist abortion is the answer for Zika. One researcher even testified before a congressional panel that fetal tissue is needed to find a Zika vaccine. As Live Action News reported, Dr. Lawrence Goldstein told the Select Panel that \u201cif you want to understand the Zika virus, the most efficient place to start is with the fetal tissue that is infected. That just seems self-evident to me.\u201d But it&#8217;s not evident at all. Quite the opposite is shown to be true. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/news\/to-your-health\/wp\/2016\/03\/16\/scientists-say-they-have-found-final-puzzle-piece-for-dengue-vaccine-a-breakthrough-that-could-help-in-fight-against-zika\/\">Washington Post reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The promising results bode\u00a0well for efforts to develop a Zika vaccine. Zika and dengue are in the same family of viruses, and NIH officials have said they hope to cut the timeline for having\u00a0a Zika vaccine\u00a0by building on their work on dengue.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/news\/to-your-health\/wp\/2016\/03\/16\/scientists-say-they-have-found-final-puzzle-piece-for-dengue-vaccine-a-breakthrough-that-could-help-in-fight-against-zika\/\">story added <\/a>that making a vaccine for the virus\u00a0&#8220;should be quite feasible&#8221; based on knowledge of\u00a0its structure and DNA.<\/p>\n<p>That &#8220;the public is likely to be accepting of a Zika virus-related exception for abortion after 24 weeks&#8221; is a troubling report that shows the permeation of fear rather than rationality. Even if there were conclusive evidence that a baby were to be born with microcephaly, he or she is still a baby\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0a living person in the womb, who deserves a right to live, like any
