Just so wrong

"about 400 unborn children without Down's Syndrome die each year as a result of amniocentisis carried out to identify 100 unborn children with the condition."

Surely there's something very wrong with being so determined to avoid having a disabled child that you're willing to take the four times greater risk of killing an able bodied feotus than it has of diagnosing a feotus with Down's syndrome.
