re: Abortion related (pro-choice), requesting help, research papers/ect 

@KaffeineKaiju commonwealthfund.org/publicati this one is about the places that are banning it; it shows they're *really bad* about maternal health already

osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/7g29 estimates of the increase in death from a nationwide ban

bmcwomenshealth.biomedcentral. losening abortion restrictions reduces maternal mortality

For other reasons why it's important, look up "ectopic pregnancy" "molar pregnancy" "gestational complications" etc. The former two are notable in that they are technically pregnancies but will *never* result in a baby

re: Abortion related (pro-choice), requesting help, research papers/ect 

@KaffeineKaiju I will caution that a chunk of people that claim they'd be swayed by facts really won't be; it's worth having the knowledge, and it's certainly worth trying

but be emotionally prepared for them to dismiss anything you have for one reason or another no matter how blatantly obvious or how good the study.

re: Abortion related (pro-choice), requesting help, research papers/ect 

@KaffeineKaiju I'd also caution that if the argument of bodily autonomy isn't convincing to someone, medical research papers may not be useful. Most people are not anti-choice because they misunderstand the medicine.
