Not that I'm fully up to date on all the madness this anti abortion stuff has caused, but I think these are the first actual deaths I've read about since the Roe ruling.
Lots of horror stories, people who will never be able to have children again etc, but no deaths.
Such fucking bullshit. I wish we could come back and charge the lawmakers with murder on this one.
Edit: And I'm sure there's been others, these are just the first I've seen.
The article pointed out that her death was weeks after the Roe V Wade was overturned. The committees that evaluate maternal mortality rates generally have an approximate two year backlog. So we are just now at the point where we can begin to see the impacts in official numbers.
Fuck.
Yeah
