    If your pregnancy is considered "high risk", there's literally no medical neccesity to abort that baby…. just ask any OB/GYN. The abortion does not save her life. What happens is the woman goes on bedrest. Often times is induced and does not go full term. Baby is delivered early………

    There's literally not one medical condition where an abortion is required! This is what you call fear mongering!! Those who are ignorant will eat it up.

    This is ridiculous!!! Standard of care is immediate IV antibiotics and bedrest. Watchful waiting. This is making me sick. Before Dobbs this happened to me and i was put on IV antibiotics to wait. Why now after dobbs are these women sent home to get septic????!!! I do understand why the hospitals arent at least trying!!!

    If you have leaking amniotic fluid you are placed on bed rest, which she likely was but had to go to her hair appointment… After years of trying to get pregnant, you are going to choose your hair over your baby? Amniotic leaks are dangerous and should not be taken lightly but more often than not both mother and baby are fine – typically with an early delivery. Just look it up. Seems like we are seeing more and more BS stories coming out and I don't think 90% are even remotely true.

    Why aren’t we being shown what happened to her? She’s alive. So, what happened and why are you just showing the beginning not the end result. Because you want to scare people?

    Republicans are misinforming the public and blaming the doctors.

    They promise to keep Roe v Wade but not follow after they're elected.

    All politicians lie but it's norm for Republicans these days.

    Y'all realize that 99.9% of abortions kill a normal healthy child, right? A lot of women are told their baby will die or mother will die and they have the baby and it's all fine. These diagnoses are not that accurate.

    Politicians and judges should not be allowed to have this kind of control over citizens health. They are not doctors, taking away a woman's right over her own body should be unconstitutional because it is definitely inhumane!!!!¡

    All of these stories sound like a precursor to that movie with Clive Owen called “Children of Men” where all women eventually stopped being able to have babies so new generations were not being created. Something is happening to women everywhere

    This is criminal behavior by the state. They put her in danger. Doctors should be held liable as well. They should defy the law and save lives.

    Why won't it air on regular cable or just about everywhere? This is more important than celebrities dancing or showing off their lavish lives on reality shows or shows about zombies and sex starved teens.

ER doctor reacts to Mitch McConnell ambulance video

Published

By



Emergency responders took Sen. Mitch McConnell to an ambulance on a stretcher after being called to his home last month for a report of an unconscious person, according to new video of the incident and an eyewitness account.

A neighbor of McConnell told CNN that they opened their door to find commotion outside their home at around 8:30 a.m. on June 14, with two ambulances, a fire truck and Capitol Police officers blocking the entire street.

The neighbor said they learned from another eyewitness who saw the individual’s face that the person on the stretcher was McConnell and he was not wearing an oxygen mask.

CNN’s Annie Grayer has the details, and emergency physician Dr. Megan Ranney describes what struck her about the newly released video. Also, CNN’s Audie Cornish looks at GOP lawmakers’ reactions to Sen. McConnell’s medical situation.
