The only thing that comes to my mind is that the religious group of Jehova's
Witnesses refuse blood transfusions, even if human life is at stake. Whether
this is true for CS I don't know.

Subject: Minority ethnic gps and intervention
Dear colleagues
Can anyone point me in the direction of evidence around women from some
ethnic gps not wanting intervention (CS for an example). I often hear that
'women from...... do not want CSs'. Has anyone read anything on this
subject?
Many thanks
