re: #22 mmmirele

I was going to say that is likely not to be the case, because of antibiotics. Many women who would have died of infection in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s were saved by antibiotics, although the damage to their bodies could not be undone. (I actually read a report years ago pointing out that the number of deaths due to botched abortions dropped dramatically from the 1920s onward as penicillin and other antibiotics became available.) But in the ~50 years since Roe, a lot of antibiotics have become less useful. We may be going back to before antibiotics, when an infection could kill you.

That said, abortions will be harder to get, and my long ago prediction that drug dealers were going to start selling mifepristone and misoprolol is likely to come true. You know, with the caveat that it might not be the real thing.

What a cluster. /thinks about some justices who should be pecked to death by ducks.

Be sure to wash down your black-market mifepristone and misoprolol with Pennyroyal tea… < spit >
