There is no question that overruling Roe will have severe implications for women at all levels, for years to come. That doesn't even begin to touch on the precedent this activist in removing a Constitutional right granted 50 years ago. I have never before heard of an individual right being taken away.
The effects will be devastating for many women.
Time to stop pretending this is "good for women" as if they are nothing more than stupid cows who don't know what how to make their own healthcare decisions.
Here is a taste of what to expect. Feel free to add more examples.
Medical emergency exceptions are so vaguely defined in abortion laws, and with such harsh penalties for providers, physicians say they will be effectively unable to provide proper care.

The wording varies slightly from state to state. Texas allows abortion for āa medical emergencyā;
Louisianaās bill makes an exception to prevent ādeath or substantial risk of death,ā or āpermanent impairment of a life-sustaining organā; and
Idaho permits abortion āto prevent the death of the pregnant woman.ā On Thursday, Oklahoma legislators
approved a bill that would ban nearly all abortions starting from fertilization, with an exception to save the life of the mother āin a medical emergency.ā
Those exceptions are so vaguely defined, and with such harsh penalties for providers deemed to have violated the terms, physicians say they will be effectively unable to provide proper medical care or even discuss abortion with patients.
