29 August 2022: Anti-abortion laws threaten the health of pregnant women

 

Anti-abortion laws threaten the health of pregnant women, as an Idaho federal judge recently ruled, see https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/08/28/federal-judge-pushback-idaho-abortion-ban/ . Physicians need to prioritize the lives of the patients that they are treating.

Of course, you can believe differently, but that is a religious point of view, not a medical one, and the United States does not have a national religion. This means our residents are free to practice our own religious beliefs or none at all, and cannot be forced to adhere to the religious beliefs of others.
