Some doctors would rather risk their patient dying than face legal issues. Many are leaving those states and forcing pregnancy centers to close due to lack of staff, which also affects the mortality of the women in those areas.
Hundreds of thousands of people die every year because of medical errors for any number of reasons. The law doesn’t need to be involved for that to happen. Blaming a law which explicitly allows abortions for emergencies, when doctors are already known to make enough fatal errors for hundreds of thousands of people to die every year, makes no sense. This isn’t exacerbating an existing issue, their interest in dodging liability is.
Women are dying because doctors aren’t providing medically necessary care.
