Not surprisingly, President Joe Biden and Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra promoted support for abortion as part of sexual and reproductive health and rights during the G7 but their advocacy for promoting abortion was became deeper and more dangerous. level while abortion has been promoted as primary health care (PHC) and part of Universal health coverage (UHC).

Abortion as primary health care and part of Universal health coverage

For background, the World Health Organization (WHO) explained its abortion access strategy in its abortion guidelines“Universal health coverage (UHC) means ensuring that all people have access to the promotive, preventive, curative, rehabilitative and palliative health services they need, which…does not expose any user to poverty financially.”

“To ensure both access to abortion and achieving UHC, abortion must be centralized within primary health care (PHC), which itself is fully integrated within the health system…The making abortion available and accessible within PHC is a safe and effective strategy to promote fair. access to, and provide an enabling environment for, abortion.”

G7 Meetings

The G7 meeting in Hiroshima made great strides toward advancing this scheme. President Biden agreed to G7 Hiroshima Leaders’ Communiqué which reaffirms the “vital role of UHC in addressing the various health challenges that the pandemic has significantly brought back…such as… the realization of comprehensive sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) for all. ..”

The 7 leaders pledge to “further promote comprehensive sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) for all individuals…”

HHS reported that Secretary Becerra attended the G7 health ministerial in Nagasaki and the his statements “It emphasized the urgency of strengthening access to essential health services, including through primary health care, and the urgency of promoting sexual and reproductive health and rights.”

Becerra agreed to G7 Nagasaki Health Ministers’ Communiqué promoting access to abortion using the context of COVID-19. It states that “as the world moves beyond the acute phase of the COVID-19 pandemic” achieving universal health coverage is imperative with primary health care as the ‘cornerstone’. Leaders lamented that some countries have experienced disruptions to essential health services including sexual and reproductive health.

In the section, maternal and child health, and comprehensive SRHR, health leaders commit to “take steps collectively to ensure universal access to comprehensive health services at every stage of life, including health of mother and child and comprehensive sexual and reproductive health services for all.” They recommend the “broadest approach to promoting comprehensive SRHR for all” which they say includes addressing access to abortion and advocacy of SRHR.

Becerra and other leaders clearly stated their commitment to promote abortion at the primary health care (PHC) level and as UHC:

“As part of this broader effort to defend and promote SRHR in the face of attempted reversal, we will promote the inclusion of comprehensive SRH services as an integral part of UHC at the PHC level.”

The health ministerial also approved the G7 Global Plan for the UHC Action Agenda which includes a commitment to accelerate collective action “toward the realization of universal health coverage (UHC)”. Becerra is committed to “promoting and supporting the creation of enabling national legislative frameworks that build safe, equitable and resilient health systems that include sexual and reproductive health and rights.”

A key G7 Action to support gender equality in health will “take steps to ensure gender-responsive health policies and services, including universal access to reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health and comprehensive sexual and reproductive health and rights for all”.

The Global Plan made a cloaked reference to Dobbs and the Trump administration’s multilateral pro-life work: “Given the well-coordinated and funded rollback of the gender and rights movement at the country and multilateral levels, the G7 will strengthen our efforts to work together in promoting SRHR and explore ways to assess the impact on sexual and reproductive health services and rights.”

Becerra promoted Abortion at the World Health Assembly

Becerra also represented the United States at the 76th World Health Assembly, the governing body of the World Health Organization (WHO), where he said that “The US is proud to be a strong partner and a leader in global public health” and cited “the benefits of building strong health systems based on equity, inclusion, and opportunity”. He qualified the statement by saying, “to build an equitable and inclusive world, we must ensure sexual and reproductive health and rights for all.”

At the same meeting, Natalia Kanem, Executive Director of UNPA said during the event, Sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR): an important element in achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC), “There can be no universal health coverage— a foundation. of the sustainable development goals—without sexual and reproductive health and rights!”

Becerra expressed full US support for the WHO stating that it “brings together our shared values and remains vital to the global struggle for health and well-being.”

He referred to the controversial pandemic accord/treaty/convention saying, “Together, let’s commit to reaching an agreement on both the pandemic accord and targeted changes to the International Health Regulations in the coming year.”

EU-US Health Task Force to Promote Abortion

Becerra is busy fulfilling his role as Biden’s chief Task Force on Reproductive Healthcare Access and achieve its goal of partnering with bilateral and multilateral partners to “strengthen access to sexual and reproductive healthcare worldwide.”

Secretary Becerra also met in Brussels with the EU Commissioner for Health and Food Safety, Stella Kyriakides, to launch the EU-US Health Task Force to expand EU-US cooperation in the field of health. This includes working together for the “success of the Pandemic Agreement currently under negotiation with the WHO” and for “promoting sexual and reproductive health and rights” for women.
