When necessary medical care is denied ...

This is a little longer than clips I usually share here -- but a necessary reminder of what it means health interventions are made a criminal offense.

Eighteen weeks into her pregnancy, Amanda Zurawski felt something was "wrong"—and learned from doctors that her fetus could not survive. Miscarriage was inevitable—"but what happened next was not," she says. Under Texas's sweeping abortion ban, doctors could not provide her with care, starting a medical nightmare that put her in the ICU fighting a life-threatening infection. In this exclusive video, she and her husband sat down with the doctors behind Obstetricians for Reproductive Justice and The Meteor to share what happened.

H/t All in Her Head.
