A termination of pregnancy may not be performed unless:
(a) Two physicians certify in writing to the fact that, to a reasonable degree of medical certainty, the termination of pregnancy is necessary to prevent the death of the patient;
(b) Two physicians certify in writing to the fact that, to a reasonable degree of medical certainty, the termination of pregnancy is necessary because to continue the pregnancy would unreasonably reduce the likelihood of successful treatment of a life-threatening disease of the patient; or
(c) A physician certifies in writing that a medical emergency existed and another physician was not available for consultation prior to the time necessary to perform the termination of pregnancy. The physician's written certification must clearly describe the medical emergency.
The maximum penalty for the doctor would be life in prison.
Let's just hope that pregnant women in Florida don't need medical care. Let's hope that fetuses don't need quality nutrition. Let's hope the babies don't need homes, medical care or food. Let's hope they don't grow up to need jobs. Because even before they exit the womb, Florida's attention has moved on to the next unborn fetus.
Mama, don't let your babies grow up to be doctors."
