[quote=Anonymous]It’s the iatrogenic harm poster, I didn’t realize you were still around. Got any citations for your claims above? Also, you’re not quite right about maternal mortality. Racial disparities, lack of access to health care, etc. play a much larger role than you’re alluding to and less tech and more touch is not necessarily the answer, despite what midwives say. It’s also not fair to paint provider groups with a broad brush, since obstetrics is female dominated and many midwifery practices have infiltrated the profession, but you can keep pushing that tired narrative if you’d like. Midwifery has just as many tough love, masochist midwives who think the pain of birth is required of all women to prove their womanhood and commitment as mothers just as much as obstetrics suffers from doctors who treat birth like a medical event. http://www.skepticalob.com/2020/01/the-scandal-behind-the-scandal-of-us-maternal-mortality.html [/quote]
