Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, ProPublica has found.A first-of-its-kind data analysis reveals that the rate of sepsis for women hospitalized during second-trimester pregnancy loss has spiked by 55% since Texas’ first abortion ban in 2021. Maternal health experts who reviewed ProPublica’s findings say they provide further evidence that the state’s ban is likely leading to dangerous delays in care and is the only explanation they could see for the sudden jump in sepsis cases. It raises concerns that the same pattern may be occurring in more than a dozen other states with similar bans.#abortionban #texasabortionban #SB8 #heartbeatlaw #sepsis #pregnancyloss #miscarriage #josselibarnica #nevaehcrain | ProPublica
