Outrageous. New mothers reported for “drug use,” but the drugs were actually administered by the hospitals.

You can bet it is mostly poor women who have little ability to sue the hospitals for the resulting emotional trauma and family and work disruptions.

Hospitals gave patients meds during childbirth, then reported them for illicit drug use
Hospitals across the country reported mothers to authorities after they tested positive for medications used routinely in millions of births.

Some survivors being liberated from the Sednayah complex in Syria appear mentally broken.

I just watched a video of a young man (teens/early 20s?) seated on a gurney being asked questions by those trying to help. All he could do was rock back and forth with an inappropriate grin repeating “Aleppo”.
