On March 28, 2019, the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights released its decision [3] that Italy violated a woman’s human right to health after Italian fertility laws required her to undergo a forced pregnancy. The press release [4] states that the couple sought fertility treatment at an Italian clinic, but the woman requested that the embryo they produced not be implanted due to its likelihood of miscarriage. The clinic told her that she was required under the law to continue with the transfer or she would be sued, so she allowed the procedure and then suffered a miscarriage. The Committee determined that the law violated the woman’s human rights, “specifying that the transfer of an embryo to the woman’s uterus without her valid consent constituted a violation of her human right to the highest attainable standard of health and her human right to gender equality.”
