How Misinformation About Abortion Became Medical Orthodoxy, ft. Dr. Calum Miller

from The OBservations Podcast

Pro-life laws are not what put women at risk - misinformation does. Dr. Callum Miller breaks down the medical, legal, and ethical arguments behind abortion policy, and why the most alarming claims about miscarriage care, ectopic pregnancy, and abortion pills collapse under unbiased scrutiny. From Malta’s zero maternal deaths in 12 years to the UK medical groups that publicly warned about mail-order abortion pills, Dr. Miller walks viewers through how fear gets weaponized in the abortion debate. If you want to understand what the FDA, the media, and medical institutions get wrong, this episode gives you the facts behind the controversy. Dr. Callum Miller is a medical doctor and research fellow at the University of Oxford, where he teaches philosophy and researches abortion policy across medical, ethical, legal, and sociological perspectives. He has published 30+ academic papers and has received prizes from Oxford and the Royal College of Psychiatrists for his bioethics work. Essential listening if you care about abortion policy, women’s health, medical ethics, or how to stand firm in a hostile professional climate without being naive about the risks. Additionally, hear from one of our MBEC 2026 sponsors, the Charlotte Lozier Institute, and the critical research they do. Dr. Cameron Louttit joins to discuss their work on life sciences, the safety of abortion drugs, and the importance of accurate scientific communication in the pro-life movement.
