  5. Abortion Care: What’s at Stake?

    15/10/2024

    Abortion Care: What’s at Stake?

    It has been several months since Florida enacted a near-total abortion ban, forcing thousands of Floridians to leave the state for care if they are more than six weeks pregnant. In this episode, we explore the harsh realities of this law: patients, even with perfect cycles, have only a two-week window after a missed period to access abortion care before it becomes illegal. We’ll also discuss how the law has created a chilling effect within the medical community, leading to delayed or denied miscarriage care, and how the so-called exceptions in the statute are failing survivors of rape and those facing life-threatening health complications or fatal fetal diagnoses. Get the facts on what’s really happening inside reproductive health clinics (getthetruth.com), and find out how you can stay informed on efforts to restore access to abortion care.  Hosted on Acast.
