It's clear that @propublica 's strategy is to spam stories of alleged deaths due to abortion bans, and never actually engage with any of the arguments about how they're actually running a cover operation for medical negligence.
From the latest one.
They want to blame Texas' abortion ban for a hospital sending away an actively miscarrying women WHO ALREADY TESTED POSITIVE FOR SEPSIS.
everybody agrees this was a case of the hospital failing to provide basic, obvious standard of care.
nobody has evidence this failure was caused by the abortion law.
and yet you get quotes like this:
it's just insane. on what planet can this death be linked to Dobbs? this is clearly just a hospital killing a teenager through the usual tragic negligence.
at this point @propublica is literally defending a repeatedly-negligent OB who has failed to treat maternal infections and been censured for it in the past.
"it's not just bad doctors!" @propublica continues to assert until slowly shrinking into a corncob
folks among the millions of women who become pregnant every year in America there will always be cases of horrible negligence, terrible standards of care, and awful outcomes. this is a tragedy-- but none of these cases is clearly linkable to the actual law!
she wasn't even denied an abortion! she hadn't even requested one!
this case is a horrible tragedy, but it's all right there people: it's the usual gross medical malpractice tragedy, not related to abortion at all.
