some kind of problem with elementary reading skills

Yes, I admit, it's become a little all-Dorries, all-the-time around here this week, but the more often she speaks, the more often she attempts to distort the issues surrounding abortion.

From her "blog," expressing disbelief in research showing no change in premature birth survival rates before 24 weeks discussed earlier today:

I think this report insults the intelligence of the public and MPs alike.

No improvement in neo-natal care in twelve years? Really? So where has all the money that has been pumped into neo-natal services gone then?

A baby born at 23 weeks today stands no better a chance of living than it did in 1996?

You'd never guess, but this is a selective and obvious distortion of the report's findings.

The report actually looks at births up until 2005 - and does indeed show significant improvements in the survival of babies... but only amongst those born at 24 and 25 weeks. Of 497 babies admitted to intensive care in 2000–05, 236 (47 per cent) survived to discharge compared with 174 of 490 (36 per cent) in 1994–95.

In other words, not only does the report show what she claims it doesn't, but it provides evidence further that her position is full of crap.

Apparently, this deliberate and transparent misreading of the research shows that the BMA "is getting desperate." Hmm.
