Hours before the ruling, a group representing the woman, whose fetus received a fatal diagnosis, said she was leaving Texas for an abortion.

The court ruled that the lower court made a mistake in ruling that the woman, Kate Cox, who is more than 20 weeks pregnant, was entitled to a medical exception.

…

Ms. Cox asked the lower court for approval after she learned that her fetus had a fatal condition, and after several trips to the emergency room.

In short, the life or health exemptions to abortion bans in Republican-controlled states are meaningless.

    I like to think I would have noped out of the state permanently well before I got pregnant.

    I’m using sync, the inbox will show no new messages even when I refresh it, and then 5 min later show one that’s 20 minutes old. I haven’t dug into it further though like comparing to the web.
