A first-of-its-kind analysis by ProPublica found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% after Texas near-total abortion ban went into effect in September 2021. The analysis also identified at least 120 in-hospital deaths of pregnant or postpartum women in 2022 and 2023 an increase of dozens of deaths from a comparable period before the COVID-19 pandemic. Jesus fing Christ thats horrific. ETA: I find it so depressing that womens reproductive freedom has been completely dropped as a national issue.
