Deaths Due To Blood Refusal – Clarification
The source cited by Khadra et al addresses maternal deaths in the United Kingdom. Compared to other nations the UK has advanced medical facilities and treatment options. Hence the statistical extrapolation of 1,455 deaths is extremely conservative given that a significant population of Jehovah’s Witnesses lives in developing countries with medical facilities and treatment options far less capable than what is available in the UK.
