A Texas Woman Died After Waiting 40 Hours for Miscarriage Care

Josseli Barnica is one of at least two pregnant Texas women who died after doctors delayed emergency care. She’d told her husband that the medical team said it couldn’t act until the fetal heartbeat stopped.

    But it’s not a crime to let her die? Cool, coolcoolcool. BTW, a third-party vote is a vote for this but in every state in the country, every single day.

    I’m not against the abortion stuff, in fact I’ve already voted for an amendment here in Florida that would allow it, despite DeSantis illegal attempts at keeping it off the ballot, threatening TV stations, etc.

    But what I’m surprised about is that only 2 women have died over this. I figured they’d have a lot more ammo to work with.

      What it hilights is how rare these 2nd/3rd trimester abortions are that the far right was bitching and moaning about to get these laws in the first place

        I also don’t understand the downvotes. Any idea about that? Nothing I said should have been controversial in any way…
