Melanie Israel, a visiting fellow in the Richard and Helen DeVos Center for Life, Religion, and Family at The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think-tank, remarked that the deaths of millions of unborn children via the abortion pill are not something to celebrate. 

According to a December 2024 report released by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, approximately 7.5 million women have used mifepristone to facilitate the death of their unborn children since the drug’s approval in 2000. 

“Destruction of future generations isn’t progress, it’s a tragedy that we can never fully comprehend,” Israel told The Christian Post. “Thankfully, scientists and doctors and researchers who truly value human flourishing are countering Dr. Baulieu’s legacy through life-affirming breakthroughs like abortion pill reversal. Let’s celebrate that instead.”
