What will it take for your state to pull your medical license @Senator Cassidy? Clearly you are actively violating your oath to “Do No Harm”. I hope your constituents are following you closely enough to primary you themselves! #racism #maternalhealth #publichealth
Jim Crow mentality becoming Republican official public policy. MAGA is in sum the most regressive, racist, and corrupt force this nation has ever endured.
And we’ve endured a LOT of all three over the past couple of centuries.
Let me get this straight. Stating the “state statistic” but only as it applies to his rhetoric of low maternal mortality rate? Is that because the only race he acknowledges is white skinned? I’m just trying to understand in case I missed something 🤔
At least he’s not practicing medicine anymore. Probably safer for patients. I’m sure he doesn’t see color and treats all his patients with dignity and respect. (Sarcasm)
Georgia and Texas and Louisiana have disbanded their Maternal Mortality Councils so you never have to contemplate how many women and children die because of policy, or preference, or the gross negligence you endorsed.
Actually, if you control for incomes Black women still have higher mortality rates. Because the doctors don’t believe Black women and don’t take their concerns the same. You know who almost died in child birth? Serena Williams. It’s not about money.
Perhaps I should rephrase: lower income families often cannot afford the nutritional and prenatal medical care needed by black women. I am sure that there are other reasons unknown to me.
It still doesn’t track became the largest group in poverty is White women (because they are the largest group). So by that logic they should have worse outcomes.
If you are speaking about the nation as a whole maybe but I don't have those statistics. I believe that you're trying to make it a racial problem., which is oversimplifying.
Well. You have to knock out the DEI factor. I think we can all assume maternal is still female without being stated. But you MUST include ALL women regardless of ethnicity. You don't get to pick and choose for your lousy statistics.
The median IQ of the Louisiana congressional delegation is 100 if you don’t count Senator Cassidy. Otherwise, the numbers would be in the low single digits.
This is what the EPA spokesperson said after it was revealed that the world's most ubiquitous weed killer, Atrazine, is causing human extinction. Sperm rates have dropped at least 1% per yr since 1955.
They are causing mass extinction, and they don't care.
This is why I never thought Cassidy wasn't voting for RFK Jr. The guy told everyone who he was years ago. You can be a health professional and a complete sell out at the same time.
“Correct for race” as in “don’t care about Black women’s lives”. Reminder that they’re not against BLM because of police or law or reverse racism or black-owned businesses, they just don’t agree that black lives matter.

What an idiot. I thought for one split second, we'd have a republican male who was a physician stand the F up. We're all maternal data points - race of a mother isn't something you correct for, senator. Do you correct for gender when you look at ovarian cancer mortality data?

Check that, a "doctor."
Strong work, Louisiana!
