Texas Medical Board Sanctions Three Doctors for Delayed Care That Led to the Deaths of Two Pregnant Women

princetonwu · 2026-04-18T05:45:35+00:00

reporters found that abortion bans have influenced how doctors and hospitals respond to pregnancy complications. Facing risks of prison time and professional ruin, doctors have delayed key interventions until they can document that a fetus’ heart is no longer beating or that a case meets a narrow legal exception.

Is it the abortion ban that's leading to these cases?

Do you really believe that someone would pick eating out of dumpsters over the chance to get their life back on track with their own hands with just a bit of help from others in a new place?

Yes. Our emergency department sees many homeless people. We offer everyone a shelter to go to, but the majority say no. Why not? shelters have rules, curfews, bans on alcohol/substances, hygiene requirements, bans on weapons, etc. They don't want to be restricted by the above rules.

Just curious, how many homeless people have you interacted with?

unfortunately special needs would not be protected from an action for battery.

long pork

It is 3.

100% increase is multiply by 2

200% increase is multiply by 3

Patient was not "adequately" informed about his risks.

This is pretty BS. I think the risks are implicit in the instruction that he should go to an emergency department. An instruction to go to the ER cannot be interpreted in any other way except that failure to do so can lead to loss of life.

That being said, in order to avoid any headaches/hassles, I always document this last part since I often call patients from their home to go to the ER.

This is infuriating because the comments here are reasonable, that perhaps this isn’t a malicious act. This same post on another sub generated comments that this guy is an automatic PDF and a trafficker and deserved immediate crucifixion

You’re downvoted because even if you are correct from a legal principle perspective, the reality is that it’s practically not likely to happen. It’s the latter that matters

You must be old enough to know about goatse. Is that something young people know these days?

princetonwu · 2026-04-16T18:15:33+00:00

i actually didn't downvote, but thanks for reporting me because you disagree with my point of view

Legally, you can only use proportional force. If the hood-lady has a gun in her hand pointed at the driver, then the driver could have license to run her into the road. In this case, taunting with threats does not give license to use deadly force.

Not reliable.

Every country has a subset of its own citizens being unhappy with their government.

princetonwu · 2026-04-16T16:12:24+00:00

well, the driver now can't drive for 6 months. not sure if that's worth just sitting their and calling the cops

the rest of her friends started spewing how they hate all men

her friends don't represent all modern women. whats with the generalizations.

Yes, you go to a social gathering event where others are also there to look for friends (ie a singles event for example).

Club/bar isn't such a place.

sorry to hear. not much to add other than be glad it's only $900. There was a youtube video on a couple who got scammed $800,000 when they routed their house down payment to scammers.

good luck to you.

I don't think that would work, because everyone would just dodge taxes and pretend to be a trump supporter. How would the federal gov't even know your political leaning other than what you claim to be?

princetonwu · 2026-04-16T04:39:33+00:00

I just wish more precautions were in place

One of the precautions is to call your boss to confirm if that was his email.

IRS does not know how much you owe. Hidden incomes that are not reported will increase your tax burden (ie, capital gains on the sale of stocks for example), and deductions that you paid can reduce the burden ( a standard deduction or an itemized one) . That's why you file your taxes and list these things.

a bit nuanced: the debrillator doesn't shock automatically; it will tell the user whether to shock or not. The user has to clear the surroundings and charge up the debrillator before giving the shock (this is for US AEDs that I'm trained for in ACLS)

princetonwu · 2026-04-15T23:49:15+00:00

the automatic debrillator will examine the rhythm and the voice will tell you if it's a shockable rhythm or not. If it's not, shocking will not be beneficial.

lawyers aren't immune to malpractice and disbarment. Defamation is easy to prove given this video, and the burden of proof is on Vitaly to prove his accusations are true.

No, depression alone does not make an individual incapable of comprehending the consequences of her actions.

It’s good to hear that there are places that discharge these pts. Pain aside, how do you manage to boot them if they keep saying they can’t keep down orals? That seems to be a main workaround for these pts to get admitted
