I’m guessing the legal fuzziness is causing a reluctance to report from providers, but I’m having a hell of a time finding much of anything post RvW.

Specifically, I’m wanting to compare rates of IUFDs/stillbirths, speed and effectiveness of care following IUFDs/stillbirths, and maternal complications/deaths - all in states (or countries) that offer access to abortion care vs locations where that’s restricted.

Hypothesis is that if someone needs an abortion and can’t get one, they’re more likely to have a IUFD/stillbirth, and since poor abortion access correlates with poor women’s health in general, that they’re more susceptible to sepsis or death as a result of delayed or insufficient care following the IUFD/stillbirth.

This is for a presentation that’s ready to go as is, but with an election happening RIGHT NOW I’d really like to drive these points home.

Any pointers for sources of info on things like this would be much appreciated - thank you, all!
