Also, abortion isn't a "treatment" for a pregnancy...it's the termination of a pregnancy. Are you seriously comparing an STI to a child?
No. I'm comparing an STI to an unwanted, parasitic foetus. STIs are living things, too you know. Most STIs aren't fatal, so why should we kill them just because they're unwanted? Hmm?

The only person involved in an abortion is a pregnant woman. A foetus isn't a person, it can't do anything a person can do. Why can a person be treated for a broken leg they knew was a risk when they jumped out of a plane, but a woman has to have her whole life ruined because of a risk she took, or an accident she had?

This is not a human in any sense of the word.
