Are you lumping the American South in with "developed" countries? You're too generous.

I remember reading about large portions of states that had absolutely no obstetricians at all after Roe v Wade was overturned because they all moved to areas where they could actually provide healthcare without being sued/criminally charged and so women were having to travel hundreds of miles to see a specialist for pregnancy care. It’s horrific.

Well, get rid of the republicans. Preventable maternal mortality is on them.
