It happened to my cousin. She was denied miscarriage management and as a result she went septic. She unalived herself because of the medical trauma she went through, had the ban not been around she would've gotten the care she needed. The exceptions present in the bans don't work in practice and women will die and bans with no exceptions are just completely wrong and against life. She gave me permission to tell this story in her final letter, she like me is a survivor of childhood SA/SV. She leaves behind a child.

To everyone who is affected or appalled by what is happening: How did you vote in recent elections? Or, DID you vote? Not just national elections, but local ones. State legislatures are where these decisions are being made. We are in this situation because of apathy, denialism, and wishful thinking on the part of the electorate. It's time people wake up and get involved. This situation does not reflect the will of the rational majority in this country.

If you are for or against abortion: If the baby/embryo is dead or not able to live, an abortion is just going to secure a living beeing, the mother. I don't understand (rationally) why this is not shifting towards securing life in the first place. I thought conservatives want to conserve. Isn't security their number one priority? Your ideology gets out of hand if you act against the corner stones of it.

This video was very informative on how abortion bans will impact healthcare in the US. As a current medical student, this is something that I have been really confused about. As it was mentioned in the video, these laws are very ambiguous and confusing to understand. I thought part of this was due to a lack of understanding the laws on my end, but it seems that the laws were purposefully written to be confusing. Dr. Lincoln talked about how the ambiguity of the laws prevents healthcare providers from acting as quickly as they would like to since they have to ensure that the mother is sick enough to warrant an abortion in states where it is banned. As a result, women are waiting for 9 extra days to receive the care that they need. The fact that women who are already sick are having to wait around to prove they are sick enough to receive treatment is mind boggling to me. However, the potential consequences for healthcare providers who provide abortions are severe. It is frustrating that the law puts providers in these extremely challenging positions. I believe that making women wait until they are sick enough to meet the “life exception” criteria goes against medical ethics and the principle of nonmaleficence. However, I think the government is to blame for this, not healthcare providers. Nonmaleficence is the ethical principle of doing no harm. However, women having to wait to receive the care they need is causing them physical and mental harm in the process. While it seems that many healthcare providers want to help these women, it is the laws in abortion ban states that are preventing them from being able to. Why does the government not have to follow the same ethical principles of doing no harm to patients? I will never understand why the government as well as insurance companies are able to deny patients the healthcare services that their providers recommend. Another aspect of the abortion ban that I never thought of is the impact on medical training. For medical students and residents who are located in states with abortion bans, they are not receiving the experience and training they need. The scary thought I had about this is that these OB-GYN residents may then go on to work in a state where abortions are legal. However, there training prevented them from being prepared for these necessary and life saving medical procedures. It also saddens me to hear about the mental health and socioeconomic consequences that women are faced with when they are unable to receive a wanted abortion. In this way we are once again letting women down and promoting harm rather than good. Not only for the mother, but for their children as well.

While their own states outlaw such training. So their own families are being strained while these people leave to get residencies in locations that do give them exposure to competent care in these skills.

It is absolutely horrifying that Roe v Wade got overturned, and that these barbaric and half-assed laws got enacted. It should be a violation of human rights to withhold medical treatment from someone like this.

Not being a health care provider and never been in a situation where I have wanted an abortion I am wondering if you were able to treat patients as you wish how would the appointment where a person who wants to terminate a pregnancy go not for health reasons. What kind discussion is had before offering an abortion to inform the person as to possible emotional issues related to the procedure. I am for informed choices. I have a friend who believes that if these laws were not in place, doctors would do abortions whenever someone asked leading to people regretting the decision later on.

Why use the term "pregnant people"??? This is about SEXISM. Emphasizing gender is crucial in this discussion.

Small correction “The Supreme Court Ruling that ended the right to abortion.” Isn’t quite correct. They handed the decision back to the states and some states ended the right to abortion or at least made it very difficult to obtain one. If the Supreme Court had ended the right to abortion then no state could legally administer one and from your own graphic at least half the states still do.
