No happy ending, though:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The 22-week infant died one day later in intensive care at a hospital in the mother's home town of Rossano in southern Italy.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>But this is not being swept under the rug in Roman Catholic nation. Eugenia Roccella, the under-secretary of state in the health department, commented:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>&ldquo;We must remember that a baby, once born, is an Italian citizen equal to all the others, and is entitled to all fundamental rights, including the right to health and therefore to be given full support.&rdquo;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The baby was lucky enough to make it out of the womb alive, and then he was left to die. Hopefully, at the very least, someone will lose their career over this travesty.</p>
<p>It's not like babies surviving abortion attempts doesn't happen:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>In 2005 a baby boy in Manchester was born alive at 24 weeks after surviving three attempts to abort him. He is now a five-year-old schoolboy.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Those are some pretty resilient &quot;unviable tissue masses&quot;, aren't they?<br />
