Is the Fetus an Unborn Baby? The Moral Dilemma of Reproductive Rights: A Commentary_ Crimson Publishers

Is the Fetus an Unborn Baby? The Moral Dilemma of Reproductive Rights: A Commentary by Hani Raoul Khouzam* in A Perceptions in Reproductive Medicine_ Journal of Reproductive Health

Commentary

The purpose of this commentary is to clarify an alternative point of view in regard to the semantic differentiation that has been promoted as true fact which claims that a fetus is not a real person and as such cannot be called or treated as a baby. Advocates of the reproductive rights insist that a fetus is not a baby unless a passage of rights is earned by leaving the mother womb. As a consequence of this assumption the fetus is not a person and does not possess any right in deciding on whether to live or to be terminated. The fetes is described as a part of the mother’s body and she is the only person that have the right to decide on whether she wishes to keep this part of her body until she delivers a live baby or to exercise her rights to get rid of what she considers as an unwanted pregnancy and aborts the unborn baby. Although abortion is a legal procedure and ending an unborn baby’s life is not consider an act of murder and women who abort their unborn baby are not tried for a murder, it seems contradictory to other legal notions that are widely accepted by most human beings and that is to charge a person with committing a double murder if the action of that person either accidently or intentionally lead to a death of a pregnant woman. How can it be that aborting an unborn baby is not considered a voluntary ending of a human life, while ending a life of pregnant woman is considered a murder of two lives. These facts are described by the United States law of the land which recognizes a child in utero as a legal victim, if injured or killed during the commission of any of over 60 listed federal crimes of violence.

The law defines “child in utero” as “a member of the species Homo sapiens, at any stage of development, who is carried in the womb [1]. To help shed some light on this dilemma; it would be appropriate to illustrate some prevailing notions. “Life” is a property that distinguishes between that which has signaled as a self-sustaining processes and that which does not, by exhibiting such things as cellular organization, homeostasis, metabolism, growth, response to stimuli, etc. Something does not have life occurs when either those biological functions have ceased (death) or when those functions were never possessed in the first place such as in the case of inanimate objects [2]. “Homo sapiens” a member of the human species and the fetus has a human DNA and can’t possibly be classified as any species other than homo sapiens, so it is obvious then that the fetus is a person.

Effects of Electronics on Human Health_ Crimson Publishers

Effects of Electronics on Human Health by Arun Singh* in Advancements in

Significances of Bioengineering & Biosciences_ Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering

Mini Review

Electronic devices, machines, home appliances, gadgets, accessories, related components, integrated parts, electronic systems create electromagnetic fields in the surroundings [1]. In these electronics, the electrons have very important and fundamental roles. Digital electronics, analogue electronics, microelectronics, circuit design, integrated circuits, optoelectronics, semiconductors, embedded systems generate the electromagnetic waves. The electrical circuits involve active and passive components like resistors, transistors, capacitors, microcontrollers, inductors, transformers, relays, circuit breakers, switches, motors, batteries, fuses, diodes, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), vacuum tubes, integrated circuits, printed circuit board (PCB), amplifiers, radio receiver, oscillators, logic gates, adders, flip-flops, counters, multiplexers, Schmitt triggers, microprocessors, microcontrollers, application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), digital signal processor (DSP), field-programmable gate array (FPGA) and many other associated passive electrical components including the interconnection technologies and these also generates electromagnetic fields [2].

Following devices and machines are available in the markets and have been used for various purposes in day today’s life by the humans [3]. The above components are integrated into the below-mentioned machines, devices and the electric currents flow and create the electromagnetic waves in the surrounding and affect the health status of human beings working with the help of these machines. The machines, gadgets and devices like Television, Laptops/Computers, Cameras, Nintendo, Kindle Fire, PSP, Oven, Smart Phones, Apple devices, Hair Straightener, Electric Lamp, Washing Machine, Bolometer, Music systems/ devices, Fans, Cell Phones, Play Station/Gaming consoles, Printer, Tablets/gadgets, Pen Drives, Kindle devices, Projectors, Google Glass, Blu Ray/CD/DVD Players, Inverter, Radio, Electronic Watches, Phone Charger, Camera and Recorders, The Remote Control, Stereo Equalizer, Memory Card, Telephones, Refrigerator, Sega Dreamcast/ cast devices, Speakers, Odometer, Recordable CD Player, Cassette Deck, Hair Dryer, Electric Shaver, Wii U, Adapter/ Chargers, ATM Machine, Blender, Stereo receiver, Flow Guard Water Level Controller, Virtual Reality Devices, Headphones, Baby Monitors, GPS Navigation Devices, PSP Go, Air Conditioner, Microphone, Scanner, Turntables, iQue Player, Amazon Echo, Robots, Artificial Intelligence, imaging machines, health care devices, diagnostic devices and many more [4] can emit radiations can compel humans to adopt certain constant postures for long duration or can create certain circumstances prone for accidents or physical or chemical injuries. All these devices are useful but have associated health hazards so only judicial use of these can prevent associated disorders. There are possible risks and hazards to human health due to overuse and inappropriate use of electronic devices, gadgets electronic home appliances and machines and the judicial use will be helpful in prevention and control of these risks and hazards. Following are the important aspects of life affected by the use of electronics. Excessive Brightness from screens of the gadgets can cause dizziness and light-headedness, tiredness, headaches, insomnia, vertigo, sleep deprivation [5]. Sitting and resting posture while using gadgets can cause back pains, neck pains, shoulder pain, tendon pains, nerve injuries are also common among the person working for a long duration without changing their postures. Accidents are possible while using gadgets and headphones/earbuds e.g. using the earphones for a long duration can cause permanent or temporary hearing loss and make the person venerable to the accidents. There are examples of accidents while crossing railway tracks and roads while crossing the roads and using earphones [6]. Besides the exposure of cosmic rays coming from the sky the radiations from towers of telecommunication networking, internet services also affecting the health of human beings and the cumulative effects are responsible for radiation-related following health disorders.
