Love your videos - truly well done. Appreciated your comment on “sleight of hand” with regard to the graph in one of the studies. Not all are aware of the ways to “enhance” the data.

One more article from @nbcnews.com Sept 2024 more specific to Texas. As a clinician it is heartbreaking to see the numbers rise in infant and maternal mortality as well as preterm birth. We keep slipping backwards.

TY for your efforts! The data is out there - in all states with strict antiabortion laws, the maternal mortality increase. Ridiculous to try and hide the data. @commonwealthfund.org published an excellent piece Dec 2022. More data has come out on the topic. #maternalhealth #maternalmortality
