Polish woman's rights violated in abortion law debate.

Polish health authorities have acknowledged a violation of patient rights in the case of a woman who died of sepsis in the fifth month of pregnancy last month. The case has gained scrutiny after a tightening of Poland's already restrictive abortion law. The ombudsman for patient rights said that the hospital had violated the patient's rights. Women's rights advocates warn that doctors are putting women's lives at risk as they prioritize saving pregnancies over women, either for ideological reasons or fearing legal consequences for themselves.
