Madrid, Spain, Nov 20, 2019 / 10:56 am
Gádor Joya, a pediatrician and a legislator of the Assembly of Madrid from the Vox party, operates the "Life Ambulance Project" outside abortion clinics in the city, offering ultrasounds to pregnant women.
"I and other doctors have been giving these women ultrasounds… Precisely because I have been doing this, I know what has been hidden from these women. Most of them, when they receive the information and hear the heartbeat, decide to go forward with their pregnancies," Joya said at a meeting of the regional health committee Nov. 5, according to Madrid daily El País.
The ultrasounds are performed in a van near the clinics. The van has been authorized by the health department.
Joya has long been a pro-life advocate. She spoke at the 2014 French march for life, saying that "we know that at the end the Truth will triumph, and abortion will disappear from our society.
