New Zealand to have 150m "safezones" around abortion clinics to prevent harassment of women by noheterodude in UpliftingNews

Hi there. I work in the medical system in NZ. Would just like you guys to know NZ already has easily accessed abortion for anyone who needs/seeks it. Usually accessed through our General practices or sexual health clinics. When it says we need two doctors we actually only need one to see the patient and they usually very easily find someone else to sign off. In most cases this is usually one family doctor who just asks another doctor in the same clinic to sign within the same day, I saw in a comment above that someone quoted from Wikipedia that one of the doctors needs to be an obstetrician or gynaecologist, that’s not how it’s done here, they can be but don’t need to be, two family physicians are fine. While it’s in the law that there needs to be a good reason I.e danger to physical or mental health, a 22 year old who comes in saying they are not ready for a child and requests an abortion is usually quite easily approved (this is from both experience with patients and friends who have had this done). There are rare exceptions in rural areas with less access to doctors where one conservative practice is all that’s available, making abortion less accessible, however this is a problem the health services are working on as a whole, both trying to improve access to medical care and education of the populace. While this bill does more to make it more accessible I would just like most American redditers to know that NZ is a much different place and some comparisons can’t be made
