wo years after the Dobbs decision, a study by JAMA Pediatrics reveals the impact of Texas' stringent abortion laws. Senate Bill 8, banning abortions after six weeks, became nearly absolute post-Dobbs. The study shows a 12.9% increase in Texas' infant mortality rate from 2021-2022, compared to just 1.8% nationally. This suggests a negative link between abortion restrictions and infant health. The study highlights a 255 increase in infant deaths in Texas, with a 22.9% rise in congenital abnormality deaths, contrasting with a 3% decrease nationally. The findings raise concerns about the health consequences of similar abortion bans across states.

Let's just call a spade a spade, the GOP is not 'pro life'. It is the party of death and stupidity.

Two years after the Supreme Court overturned federal abortion protections with the Dobbs decision, a new study shows the deadly aftermath of Texas' restrictive abortion laws.

Texas' ban on abortions over six weeks of gestation, known as Senate Bill 8, went into effect in 2021 and became a near-total ban after the Dobbs decision in 2022. In that period, however, the study conducted by the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Pediatrics found that the infant mortality rate in Texas rose 12.9 percent between 2021 and 2022 compared to just 1.8 percent across the rest of the United States. The study concludes that the state's stringent abortion restrictions may have a negative spillover effect on infant health, raising the question as to whether states with similar bans post-Dobbs may see similar results in the coming years. Notably, the study does not include health impacts since Texas outlawed elective abortions, only the period under the six-week ban

Between 2021 and 2022, recorded infant deaths in Texas increased from 1,985 to 2,240, or 255 additional deaths. Of those infant deaths, deaths due to congenital abnormalities rose 22.9 percent in Texas compared to a 3 percent decrease in the rest of the country.
 
I guess they figure it is better for babies to die on their own as long as they are not aborted, no matter their viability.

It’s God’s will.
 
So more babies will die if we don't allow abortions?... how does that work?... if the babies in question would have been aborted they would be just as dead... or maybe the libs think aborted babies are not babes they are just a mass of cells....

Reckless and irresponsible, Republicans have contempt for sound, responsible governance.

Well of course, because those infants would've been ripped to pieces in their mother's wombs, in a different state. That fetus was allowed to develop and when born, died as an infant. Better to die in your mother's arms or in the arms of a caring nurse, or even in an incubator, than being cut to pieces in your mom's womb.

And the article doesn't mention how many of those deaths were via the millions of migrants invading Texas. There is no evidence it had anything to do with abortion laws. And the mortality rate was rising from 2021 well before Dobbs or any state actions.

Get your head out of other women's womb.

I don't get men, any men, telling women what they can do with their own bodies.

Try minding your own fucking business.
