define “non viable”
Non viable: adjective:
Nonviable:
”a nonviable fetus.”
“a nonviable idea.”

I think abortion is wholly different from getting a nonviable fetus removed as it cannot develop nor live
All fetuses are non-viable without being allowed parasitic access to the mother’s bodily resources.
all children are non viable without being allowed parasitic access to the parents resources
even the ones that are born
