Georgia Woman Dies From Delayed Emergency Medical Care — thanks to abortion ban

[HuntersLaptop2028]

This article covers the story of Amber Nicole Thurman, a woman who died of infection shortly after Georgia's 6 week abortion ban went into effect. Thurman, seeking an abortion, hoped a block of the ban would happen to allow her to have an abortion within the state, but in the 9th week she made the decision to travel to North Carolina for a surgical abortion. Due to traffic on the way to the appointment, the NC clinic was only able to offer Thurman mifepristone and misoprostol "and instructed [her] to go to the emergency room if complications developed".

On Aug 18. 2022 Thurman vomited blood and passed out at home. She was taken to a hospital in which an ultrasound showed possible tissue remaining in her uterus, and noted an odor during her pelvic exam. Instead of performing the criminalized procedure, doctors continued Thurman on an IV drip and antibiotics. 17 hours after arriving, her condition deteriorating, Thurman was taken into the operating room. During abdominal surgery Thurman's heart stopped. 

Thurman's mother recalls her daughter's last words to her: “Promise me you’ll take care of my son.”

A maternal mortality review committee concluded that Thurman being provided a surgical abortion earlier would have provided "good chance" of preventing her death.

Attorneys representing the state of Georgia have called attempts to block the ban “hyperbolic fear mongering".

Very telling about the type of person you are.

Your very first thought, after reading the post and articles, is a “whataboutism” about a completely different topic.

Tragic. I feel some extreme cases should be able to be worked out. However, this is an uproar for the life of one mother with no mention of all baby lives that have been saved.
