Remember when conservatives tried to brush off the claim that the SC decision wouldn't affect women's abilities to seek treatment for ectopic pregnancies in states with draconian abortion laws? Looks like you can throw that wishful thinking out the window.
ectopic pregnancies are tubal, and the baby is most likely already dead, and the mother is in danger.... I dont see anyplace turning away someone in medical danger
you have one group ALLEDGING that hospital ADMINISTRATORS are doing this......
...and even IF, Texas outlawed all abortions...a tubal ligation is NOT an abortion
ANY medical professional or hospital administrator telling a doctor not to provide medical care for an ectopic pregnancy should be strung up on a yardarm. If they do, they are using it for political purposes to drive fear for their agenda, the patient be damned.

I call BS on this story
You might not, but the Texas Medical Association does.
Quote:
AUSTIN — The Texas Medical Association wants regulators to step in after hospitals reportedly refused to treat patients with serious pregnancy complications for fear of violating the state’s abortion ban.
In a letter sent Wednesday to the Texas Medical Board, the association said it received complaints that hospitals, their administrators and their lawyers may be prohibiting physicians from providing medically appropriate care to women with ectopic pregnancies and other complications.
TMA policy positions and the candidates they support are far more liberal than the medical community as a whole. The TMA is a pro-abortion group
Ok, thanks for the info.
