Infant deaths increased after Texas banned abortion in early pregnancy
Since Texas’ ban on abortion went into effect, infant deaths in the state increased by nearly 13%, according to a new analysis published on Monday in JAMA Pediatrics.
Among the causes of infant deaths, one increased the most: congenital abnormalities, which increased 22.9% in Texas in children between 2021 and 2022, while they decreased 2.9% in the rest of the country. That trend suggests that at least in some cases, parents were forced to carry a pregnancy to term while knowing their children had little to no chance of survival, said Gemmill.

So if
-
Conservatives think that abortion is murder
-
and there are more infants dying
-
but fewer abortions being performed
Doesn't that mean they should consider their infant mortality rate exactly the same as before?
edit: Cause, if the above is true, but their infant mortality rate is going up, we can draw a straight line between the decrease of abortions and the increase of infant deaths. Of course, Conservative feelings don't care about facts.
No, that’s to logical. They’ll spin the numbers to mean something positive for the party.
They'll just include them in the # of births category without pointing to survivability.
This is exactly it.
They’ll just spin it and it won’t matter because their voter base literally doesn’t care. They are incapable of critical thought, foresight, empathy, accountability, or generally any other positive human trait.
They think one is the choice of the mother, and the other the choice of god. Only god is allowed to renig on his promise of life. And besides if it wasn’t cruel, what would be the point?
Conservatives don't give a fuck if a baby dies. A conservative is not capable of empathy.
Having complete mortal control over others as well as causing misery to others are what brings conservatives deep, personal fulfillment. Truly. They thrive on control and misery. It is just who conservatives are at their core.
There are many things conservatives should think and do.
Abortions. Murder not sanctioned. Liberals and Democrats. Muuuuuurderrrrrr!!
