Research group describes health workers waiting until patients ‘on brink of death’ before providing care
More than two years after the US supreme court overturned Roe v Wade, state abortion bans are forcing doctors to provide substandard medical care, new research released Monday shows.
The study describes how one woman, whose water broke too early on her pregnancy, ended up in the ICU with severe sepsis because she could not get an abortion to end her doomed pregnancy. Her story is one of dozens of narratives collected by the research group Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health, which is housed at the University of California, San Francisco.
Not to minimize this important point, but generally the US healthcare system forces doctors to provide substandard care.
It is however quite effective at forcing people to give up as much money as possible to the predatory system.
