Head of OBGYN Group Says Abortions, Not Pro-Life Laws, Killed Two Mothers in Georgia

Over the weekend, Fox & Friends Saturday helped debunk claims by liberals that two women died because of Georgia’s abortion ban as the show had on Dr. Christina Francis to discuss the issue.

Co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy introduced the segment by playing a clip of Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris trying to scare an audience about abortion:

RACHEL CAMPOS-DUFFY: Vice President Harris is calling out Trump’s pro-life agenda as Democrats believe abortion will motivate voters across key battlegrounds.

VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS: At least two women — and those are only the stories we know — here in the state of Georgia, died — died because of the Trump abortion ban.

Showing on screen an image of an op-ed in The Atlanta Journal Constitution, Campus-Duffy soon introduced her pro-life guest:

But in her new op-ed, our next guest explains why this is not the case. Dr. Christina Francis is CEO of the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and she joins us now. Doctor, it’s so great to have you on on such an important topic because there’s a lot of lies being told right now. So explain to us exactly why did Amber Nicole Thurman die.

Dr. Francis recalled that Amber Nicole Thurman traveled to North Carolina to get an abortion and was given two medications to induce the abortion in spite of those who argue the medications are unsafe:

And when she was nine weeks pregnant, she drove to North Carolina for what she thought was going to be a surgical abortion, and then the reports actually state that just an employee of the clinic gave her the high-risk abortion drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol, and she took those drugs and, unfortunately, four to five days later, she went to her local hospital because she got heavy bleeding. She was vomiting blood.

She then argued that, after Thurman became ill back home in Georgia, and the hospital she went to mishandled the situation and failed to do what it should have to save her life:

Further reports she had passed out, and she showed up at her local hospital with what is very clear to me — and I think I said in my op-ed — even a first-year resident would be able to make the diagnosis of sepsis from an incomplete abortion, which we know to be a risk of taking these drugs. And, unfortunately, her doctors did not appear to treat her by the standard of care which would have been an immediate D&C and then antibiotics, and they waited 20 hours before they took her to the operating room. And at that point, she was in multi-system organ failure, and she was on medications to keep her blood pressure up because of the sepsis. And, unfortunately, she died on the operating room table.

Dr. Francis then complained about Democrats and the media causing harm by misinforming women: “You know, it’s really unfortunate that politicians like Vice President Harris and the media are trying to blame this on laws like Georgia’s law that actually protects women and their children. And we know that Amber and her unborn children were victims of these high-risk abortion drugs.” But they always want to push these pills are always safe and effective, and never cause complications.

Referring to the case of Candi Miller’s death, Campos-Duffy played a clip of another pro-life physician, Dr. Susan Bane, who has also accused the media of endangering women with misinformation:

I’m mad because this woman didn’t have to die. This woman did not die because — as it is journalists report that a D&C procedure — which is a minor surgical procedure — couldn’t have been done on this woman. Based on the timeline and her symptoms, she should have had it done as soon as she could get to the hospital. It was medical negligence. (editing jump) What’s also negligent is the reporting I’m seeing over and over. You are harming women. You’re scaring them to seek care. Stop it.
