…[so-called] Crisis pregnancy centers provide “services” to #pregnant #women with the goal of dissuading them from having an #abortion. Such centers often do not clearly advertise their anti-abortion stance, & #AbortionRights advocates have called them deceptive.

A bombshell 2025 study from Yale University’s School of Public Health has revealed that life expectancy in several Southern states barely changed in a hundred years, despite a full century of medical and technological advancements.
While there were some advances for men, women born in 2000 in West Virginia, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Mississippi and Arkansas can expect to live no longer than their counterparts born in 1900. In Oklahoma, the life expectancy for women born in 2000 was actually down 0.7 years from those born 1900.
