Puerto Rico governor signs widely disputed law to recognize fetus as human being

Puerto Rico’s governor has signed a bill that amends a law to recognize a fetus as a human being. It's a move that doctors and legal experts warn will have deep ramifications for the U.S. territory. The amendment was approved Thursday without public hearings and amid concerns from opponents who warned it would unleash confusion and affect how doctors and pregnant or potentially pregnant women are treated. The president of Puerto Rico’s College of Medical Surgeons warned that the new law would lead to “defensive health care" and questioned why the medical sector was never consulted.
