An Idaho hospital has planned to stop delivering babies, with the medical center’s managers citing increasing criminalization of physicians and the inability to retain pediatricians as major reasons.

Bonner General Health, the only hospital in Sandpoint, Idaho, announced on Friday that it would no longer provide labor, delivery and a host of other obstetrical services.

The more than 9,000 residents of Sandpoint are now forced to drive 46 miles for the nearest labor and delivery care, the Idaho Statesman reported.


Will we see more such cases all over these anti-abortion states?


How does this relate? In Virginia, no OBGYN ever would perform an abortion, they would refer you to PP. I don't see why this would have any effect on regular OBGYN practice.


I live in Virginia. My OBGYN performed my abortion (several shots of methotrexate for an ectopic). Of course I wasn't referred to PP.


When was this?


2018


Not relevant in a post Roe America


Please show me where Virginia has placed further restrictions on abortions since Roe fell.
I know the GOP here has tried, but it hasn't succeeded yet.

You are correct for now but only because the Democrats have a very slim majority in the state Senate. Pick a candidate or two to support in 2023 to keep it that way.

Because it was ectopic. You don’t see the difference?

You do know that several red states are not allowing exceptions for ectopic pregnancies, right?


And even when they do, doctors are afraid to treat because they may still be accused of performing an abortion. You basically have to be visibly hemorrhaging and maybe the ER will see you.

Lucky for the PP, SCOTUS hadn't overturned R v W in 2018 when they needed abortion.
I never had or would have an abortion


I'm the PP who had the ectopic. It was a VERY much wanted pregnancy (FET). It would have killed me, and left my older DD motherless.
You'd rather die?

Sandpoint Idaho is kind of the gateway to northern Idaho, home to some of the most virulent neo-nazi and white supremacist groups (e.g. the Aryan Nation). A real shame, because there’s some beautiful scenery, but I digress. I wonder if there is more to it?

They haven't today because VA is more of purplish/blue state. And good thing, because if it was a red state, and you need abortion, you wouldn't be able to get one. You'd have to go to a blue state. You're welcome.

It’s not “of course”. I thought the same the earlier PP did because when I needed mine my OBGYN office was like of course we don’t do that! I went to PP.


Point being that no, Planned Parenthood isn't the sole abortion provider in VA, and some OBGYN practices (as well as some MFMs) handle that medical care.


Abortion of a healthy pregnancy is NOT the same medically.


What kind of nonsense are you spouting? A D&C for a missed miscarriage is the same as a D&C for an elective abortion is the same as a D&C for a fetus with abnormalities inconsistent with life. You are making up distinctions.

Oh, they'll "allow" them...but likely not methotrexate.

Was your hospital OBGYN practice religiously affiliated? I know that Georgetown won't even do IUDs. I will never ever go to a Catholic hospital for anything. Not worth the risk.
