A recent study that claims maternal deaths are higher in states where abortion is nearly banned or those that have gestational limits on terminating preborn babies is misleading, according to a pro-life medical professional and researcher.

The report, released Thursday by the Commonwealth Fund, a private health research foundation, evaluated states based on 32 measures, including health outcomes and access to abortion.

Researchers focused primarily on data from 2021 and 2022, and the study authors obtained their information through government-sponsored surveys and from the Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health (ANSIRH) Abortion Facility Database. The study assessed women of reproductive age, ages 15 to 44, who died from causes related to pregnancy, substance abuse, COVID-19 or other chronic conditions.

I wanted to read the article discussing why those claims are misleading. However, right now Christian Post | Christian News & Commentaries is down. There appears to be something wrong with the host website for that article.

Phooey. Still ain't working for me. That means there is probably something on the LAN, or on this laptop that I am using which doesn't like or recognize that website.
