Hell yes!
Of fucking course it does, considering the gravity, in terms of Human Misery, of any risk of microcephaly. That small-seeming figure of 0.42% means that, out of every 10,000 pregnancies in Zika-infested areas, 42 are likely to be microcephalic. That's a lot, and it's close to what we are now actually seeing (more than 5,000 cases of neonatal microcephaly, according to the International Business Times UK) in heavily infected areas of Brazil. So, with Brazil poised on the brink of a reversion to 60's-style, Pinochet-like fascism (thanks to Dilma Rousseff's colossal ineptitude, which is perhaps only equalled by the magnitude of her corruption), where does opposition to abortion-in-case-of-foetal-malformation come from? From the fucking goddamned Bishops of the Evil Roman Catholic Church! Well, and doubtless from other various other corrupt troglodytic reactionary elements, of whom, throughout its history, Brazil has always had an embarrassing superfluity. This lovely country, so rich in resources and culture and a people more beautiful in their persons and more musical than any other in the world, is the prey of the most savagely benighted ruling class on the planet. Bring back the Braganças!
