Should abortion clinics be regulated like other outpatient surgery facilities?

35. The Gosnell case is a failure of the state medical board and Board of Health to regulate.

I've read the District Attorney's report on this, which is horrific.

What Gosnell did was illegal, sadistic and sick. What he did was what desperate women would resort to. He did not have trained personnel giving anesthesia. He was charged with one count of murder of an adult woman. Several women lost their uteri. He also killed viable fetuses and was charged with several counts of murder for that.

Investigators were worried about his pill selling racket, but didn't notice the filth and broken equipment and heavily drugged women bleeding on the furniture, etc. Any investigator who reported their concerns was ignored.

"Tort reform" is a scam by Republicans to ignore the real malpractice problem. The real problem is state medical boards not disciplining bad doctors. In Texas they damage children for life by not delivering them soon enough, causing hypoxia, in one case I took depositions for.

What did the doctor do? Moved out of state and kept doing malpractice.

The Gosnell case is about what happens when abortion is illegal and not regulated properly. The TRAP regulations are too much and are designed to put abortion clinics out of business.

It's the fault of the state boards and the health department. Everyone is missing the point.
