Brehany, PhD, an ethicist for the National Catholic Bioethics Center, told CNA in a statement. \u201cAt a minimum, there seems to be a profound disagreement about what was said between the physician and the hospital, and the patient and her family. \u201cHopefully, this tragedy will not be exploited to promote abortion on demand or to undermine respect for the rights of conscience of physicians and other healthcare providers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The family of Valentina Milluzzo, who died at Cannizzaro hospital in the Sicilian city of Catania, allege that she passed away because her doctor was a \u00a0&#8220;conscientious objector&#8221; to abortion and thus did not perform an abortion after she suffered pregnancy complications. The hospital denies that this is the case, and the head of the hospital, Angelo Pellicano, told Ansa news agency that the doctor did not have a conscientious objection to abortion, but that there was a spontaneous miscarriage that was forced by serious circumstances. . .
