TRULY NUMEROUS additional links to news articles and videos could be presented here but these samples suffice to show the international nature of the blood issue.

Germany in Europe

A four months pregnant Jehovah's Witness woman was brought bleeding heavily to the Asklepios Clinic in the Lich area of Giessen, Hesse state.  The 29 year old woman rejected blood transfusions and died killing both herself and her unborn baby. 

Her mother filed charges against the JW husband who had insisted that his wife not receive emergency transfusions as well as the doctors who cooperated with him since the birthing woman had a Watchtower-provided No Blood card.  The office of Public Prosecuter Reinhard Hübner charged the husband and doctors with manslaughter since death was involved.  Text and a video in German appear below:
