THE current death figure from the coronavirus is more than 42,000 and thankfully slowing down. During this same period, there have been roughly 50,000 baby deaths from abortion and unfortunately not slowing down.
There are 205,000 abortions in the UK each year.
We are bombarded every day with coronavirus numbers but these figures are not referred to as being of no consequence.
