Do fetal tissue cell lines last forever or will they need to be replaced?
By Christian Hacking & Debbie Mountford
Ever since CBR UK republished 12 Faulty Assumptions about Fetal Tissue cell lines in March of 2021, I have received a steady stream of emails challenging one particular assumption: “No extra abortions are necessary” (No.9).
It fundamentally boils down to the question of whether the cell lines used in the covid vaccine like HEK293 are “immortal” or in fact will need to be replaced over the coming decades, thus fueling the need for more babies to be harvested (some while still alive), to generate new cell lines. HEK293 was created from the kidney cells of a 12 -13 week old baby girl, whom we have named Johanna. You can read more about the sickening brutality of how these cells are harvested from babies like Johanna in my related piece: What the HEK?!
My search for an answer has taken me far and wide and is not as clear cut as I would like, but I hope this article will at least inch the conversation forward.
For those of you unlikely to exercise your finger by scrolling to the bottom, I have stuck a summary of my verdict at the top, and then elaborate on how I got there underneath.

An analysis of available data since the overturn of Roe v. Wade
Two years ago today, the United States Supreme Court caused international uproar by overturning Roe v. Wade. This historic decision did not ban abortion in America - as many people believed it would - but instead allowed democracy to thrive. For the first time in almost 50 years, the voters in each state could elect lawmakers and politicians who would represent their views and legislate accordingly.
There is a lot of conflicting information and media spin surrounding the outcome of the Dobbs decision (the case that overturned Roe), so how can we find out what has actually happened and more importantly, why that might be?
What does this mean for the pro-choice/pro-life debate, have any babies been saved? And crucially, how should we respond?

Last night, in the historic Palace of Versailles, 13 miles southwest of Paris, French lawmakers voted in favour of amending their constitution to ensure abortion is a “guaranteed freedom.” The symbolic revote took place, as is custom with all constitutional changes, following the success of the same amendment in both the National Assembly (lower house) in January and the Senate (upper house) last Wednesday.

The images of the Manchester University pro-life students, being harassed by an abortion-defending mob, is reminiscent of the Little Rock Nine African-American students, and the segregation-defending mob hurling abuse at them.

A coalition of pro-life groups is making a public stand against the extreme attempts by pro-abortion MP Diana Johnson to remove further protections from babies in the womb and their mothers in the name of “healthcare” and “women’s rights”.
What is this MP attempting to do?
Diana Johnson has hijacked the Criminal Justice Bill by tabling amendments that propose removing offences that make it illegal to perform a self-abortion at any point right through to birth.

On Wednesday, around 35 people participated in a pro-life demonstration in Walthamstow, organised by a coalition of pro-life groups. We were responding to the extreme amendments the local MP, Stella Creasy, has put forward as part of The Criminal Justice bill. Her amendments would remove sections 58, 59 and 60 of the Offences Against the Person Act - which would remove protections from the unborn child - essentially meaning women could abort their babies at home up to birth, and even conceal the birth and dispose of the baby’s body, without fear of prosecution.

The Conservative party conference took place this week in Manchester, and whatever you may think of the Tories, the opposition parties or the political mire we find ourselves in generally in Britain these days; there was one element of the Prime Minister’s speech that should light a fire under us all…and I’m not talking about scrapping HS2!
