dead women. Two women have been named as preventable deaths because did not receive the medical treatment timely[/quote]

In Georgia. That's just one state and that we know about.[/quote]
I am quoting myself from the Roe thread. There’s got to be so many women maimed and killed by these policies, just strictly on numbers: 
“In 2019 there were an estimated 5,507,000 pregnancies. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/nchs_press...a%2012%25%20decline.

Let’s just ectopic pregnancies as a complication, since they necessarily mean that the pregnancy is not going to term, one way or the other. There’s an average of 15.8 ectopic pregnancies per 1000 pregnancies (but that’s age adjusted and one source put the numbers closer to 19% in North America) https://www.thepermanentejournal.org/doi/10.7...ed%20incidence,0.001)%20(Table%201). Provided I have done the math right, that’s about 87,000 ectopic pregnancies per year. Not all of those are in forced birther states, of course.”

It’s not like any of this is going to be visible to anyone who’s not look at the statistical level. No one is going to know that their neighbor was in hemorrhagic shock after an incomplete miscarriage. No one is going to know or care about the lifelong health effects the survivors are going to experience. People like OP can just float blithely along, voting GOP and getting angry that her daughter may or may not have been made aware - in a totally respectful and not remotely graphic commercial - of the experiences of other children.
