Texas is Fabricating Abortion Data – by Jessica Valenti

This rarely reported on section of Texas law lists 28 medical issues as abortion complications—conditions that reproductive health experts point out often have nothing to do with abortion. Still, doctors are required to tell the state about any woman who develops one of these issues if she happens to have had an abortion at any point in her life.

Doctors who don’t make these reports can be fined for each ‘violation’; after three violations, they could lose their license. Sue, who got conflicting and often confusing guidance from the large health system that runs her hospital and dozens of others in the state, was terrified not to comply. “For all I knew, I could be one that [Attorney General] Ken Paxton made an example of,” she says.

Hay quienes por un acto, un consejo, un detalle, una palabra, una reflexión, un sentimiento o una sonrisa, se vuelven inolvidables. Es gente que queda inscrita en la memoria de otros seres humanos. Se trata de personas, en masculino y en femenino, en mayúsculas y en minúsculas, que han renunciado a un estado primario de ambiciones, egoísmo, apariencias y superficialidades, y, por lo mismo, transitado a un plano sublime y excelso en el que los sentimientos nobles, el bien, la verdad, el respeto, la dignidad, la armonía y la rectitud forman parte de su esencia y de su estilo de vida.
