A study of opinions about the Polish constitutional tribunal's judgement strengthening Polish abortion laws.

Objective: In October 2020, the Polish Constitutional Tribunal (CT) ruled that in cases where there are indications of irreversible impairments of a foetus or incurable life-threatening diseases, abortions violate the Polish Constitution. Despite the fact that it was issued during the second wave of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in Poland, this judgement caused numerous protests. The current study sought to ascertain Poles' opinions regarding the CT's judgement, and the ensuing threat to public health presented by the protests against it.
