After Dobbs: How the Supreme Court Ended Roe But Not Abortion, a new book co-authored by reproductive rights experts Carole Joffe and David Cohen , co-authors.
The book explores how abortion providers and patients have adapted to changing circumstances since the June 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson .
Dr. Curtis Boyd , a Baptist preacher turned abortion provider in Texas and New Mexico , “predicted that relatively few doctors would perform illegal abortions in this new era” He says for the very sick, what’s going on is still barbaric. Women who are near death are not getting the care they need. Pills are available and cheaper.
As long as abortion remains legal in the states where it is not legal, I don't see people doing illegal procedures.
Pills are just a huge difference from before Roe , because there weren’t pills that you could get somewhat freely on the internet, and now you can.
The other big difference is social media and the internet blaring this to everyone in the world.
