After a US court ruled that frozen embryos are children, British fertility experts are concerned that IVF will become the UK's next "cultural battleground" similar to abortion access. The Supreme Court of Alabama has ruled that clinics could be held accountable for destroying fertilized eggs. Any fertility clinics in the state have already suspended procedures, afraid that they, or their employees, may be prosecuted for certain aspects of IVF that resulted in embryo destruction. The debate is expected to grow in intensity, with reproductive right campaigners concerned that a domino effect will occur when other US states follow Alabama's example. Christian organisations in the United Kingdom have already voiced their support for the controversial decision. Experts in fertility therapy in the United Kingdom are also concerned that the subject of fertility medicine is about to become tense and divisive debate as abortion.

During an interview, he said, 'They've been responding to Ebola outbreaks for years and are actually really good at it.'
