I was finishing the edits today on my infectious disease chapter for my next book on pregnancy loss, and when pregnant you really don't want flu, covid, CMV... And it's not only increased risk of miscarriage it's preterm birth, IUGR, preeclampsia.

A Missouri Representative has filed a bill to track pregnancies in the state. HB 807 will: "Maintain a central registry of each expectant mother who is at risk for seeking an abortion of her unborn child and make the same available to a prospective adoptive parent who has completed screenings."

This is the national threat to abortion access that I would be focusing on. The extremist judge in Texas who ruled to strip FDA approval from mifepristone (the first of two medications used for medication abortion) in 2023 just revived the case with new plaintiffs, and it's likely headed to SCOTUS.

I’m not saying this bill doesn’t matter because it does normalize abortion bans and spread abortion stigma + disinformation. However, it’s important for folks to know that this particular bill has been introduced by every Congress since 2011. Unnecessary panic and fear harms abortion seekers.

It’s impossible not to be angry when people have been saying this was coming for years. We knew this was all coming. Why can’t we just do something about it for once? Why do we have to keep repeating the same warnings until it happens?

Anti-abortion advocates are running ads to find & encourage men to betray and sue their partners. This makes me sick. wapo.st/40nfmD2
Antiabortion advocates look for men to report their partners' abortions

Boyfriends and husbands can have uniquely personal and specific information necessary to help surface new lawsuits in states with abortion bans.This partner-focused approach will shift to a more public phase next month when Texas's largest antiabortion organization launches an advertising campaign on Facebook and X to reach the husbands, boyfriends and sex partners of women who have had abortions in the state - with the goal of recruiting them to file lawsuits against those who assisted the women in ending their pregnancies.

The GOP has released its list of 12 priority bills. Among them is a “protection” for infants “born alive” after abortion. It’s important to understand that what these laws (which exist in multiple states already) actually do is prohibit palliative care for very sick and dying newborns.

From a survey of 2,081 confirmed Covid positive NYers, 80% had symptoms for at least 1 month. Half reported these symptoms were moderate to severe. 🧵
In 2022, most adults with prior COVID19 (80%) had experienced at least one symptom lasting one month or longer.

Half (50%) reported at least one
moderate or severe symptom.
• Among the most common symptoms
were fatigue and decreased exercise
tolerance, which were each reported
by around half of all adults with prior
COVID-19.

In my view, younger children find it hard to express symptoms, so will likely be under diagnosed. ESP pre-verbal. So I’m not sure how accurate age as a risk factor is.
