The laws apply to living babies and fetuses, she had septicemia and the flesh was necrotic, meaning the twins were dead and rotting inside her. Abortion Laws do not apply to dead babies.

Just to be clear, she found out that her baby was going to have a deformity, so she opted to get an abortion. Yes, she was denied in Georgia. But she went to another state and got the abortion she wanted. It was the pill they gave her is what killed her. She was healthy and other than the deformity, so was her baby. Lastly, she was pregnant with twins. Did the other baby not count?

Surgical abortions are legal in all 50 states if the mother's life is at risk. What really happened here?

Shouldn't Dr Fauci be addressing this? Who allowed pills like this anyways? Sad but here personal responsibility was the key to unlock this problematic door...

Her death had nothing to do with a ban on anything. Stop lying.

She died because of the pill. We must ban the pill it would have saved her life and the life of her twins.
