A pregnant teenager died after trying to get care in three visits to Texas emergency rooms​


Fails, who would have seen her daughter turn 20 this Friday, still cannot understand why Crain’s emergency was not treated like an emergency.

But that is what many pregnant women are now facing in states with strict abortion bans, doctors and lawyers have told ProPublica.

“Pregnant women have become essentially untouchables,” said Sara Rosenbaum, a health law and policy professor emerita at George Washington University.

60 MInutes had a feature on how the abortion law has affected OBGYNs in Texas. A lot are leaving the state because there is too much risk or they can't offer the comprehensive care they prefer to. Some pregnant women have to wait as the clinic's lawyer has to weigh the legal ramifications to offering certain options or to even risk offering an abortion to save the life of the mother. It is leading women to go to New Mexico for abortions and one doctor went ahead and moved there. Another who had a child that wasn't going to be viable eventually moved to Hawaii to complete her residency because she did not want to risk getting pregnant in this state. It will have a massive effect on rural hospitals that are already having trouble finding doctors. Part of the problem with the laws is they pay a bounty to people who successful turn in a doctor who is suspected of performing an abortion.

My sincere hope is women and men who actually give a shit about their wives, daughters, family members, and female friends will go to ballot tomorrow and kick Ted Cruz the fuck out of office. Then maybe we can get back to something that resembles reasonable comprehensive care for pregnant women.
 
I just wanna say this now before the results come in tomorrow; I was initially skeptical of Harris but she ran an excellent campaign from start to finish. She took nothing for granted and made very few unforced errors. If the worst happens, it’s not going to be because she failed us; she did better than we could have ever hoped.

All that being said, I think she’s got this in the bag.
 
Agreed. I have to think she has it won because I really don't want to imagine a United States of America that willingly voted that piece of shit back into the White House after all he's said and all he's done before. It would mean we really are a broken society full of hatred, greed, envy, and fear of those not like us. I really think women and black people are going to drag us into the future like they did in 2020. I hate that white men have so fallen down the red pill rabbit hole that they would prefer someone who least epitomizes what a man should be.
 
I mean if Needles & Grooves did a Poll - I dont think Trump gets a vote ! I assume some people on here from US will vote Republican, but considering many of those who do are embarrassed to admit it - I think that equals an unwinnable position.
I predict form the outside a Harris Landslide. Picking up information from here gives me confidence the world is a better place than Trump gives it credit and the Polls are way off... Good Luck Democrats.

Just having a bit of fun with AI this morning to keep be distracted. Also doing some bug reporting. Found a bug where if you hie the "post reply" button before the image completes its upload. When it tells you the files are still uploading and asks if you want to cancel submitting the post, when you press cancel instead of remaining on the page where you are replying and the images continue to upload you are redirected to an error page staging that the message is too long. Filed a bug report with XenForo.
