Ben Carson, Critic of Fetal Tissue Research, Has Done Fetal Tissue Research
- 5 years ago
Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who's done well in some recent Republican 2016 primary polls, has been very critical of Planned Parenthood since the release of "sting" videos that document its donation of fetal tissue to medical researchers. From Breitbart:
Carson said, in response, to the argument that Planned Parenthood uses fetal organs for medical research, “it’s been over-promised what the benefits of fetal research would be. And very much under-delivered. And if you go back over the years, and look at the research that has been done and all the things that it was supposed to deliver, very little of that has been done, and there’s nothing that can’t be done without fetal tissue."
