Rep. Kat Cammack, a Florida Republican, faced a life-threatening ectopic pregnancy situation under Florida’s six-week abortion ban. Although doctors recommended a medication to treat her condition, they hesitated due to the new restrictions. Ultimately, after proving her case, she received the treatment. Surprisingly, instead of reflecting on the law's impact, Cammack criticizes Democrats for fearmongering about the consequences of such bans and insists that her ordeal wasn't an abortion, clarifying the difference between ectopic pregnancies and elective terminations.
...the only treatment for ectopic pregnancies is to remove the egg, either by using medicine (methotrexate) to dissolve it, or by surgically removing it.
"It was absolute fearmongering at its worst...There will be some comments like, 'Well, thank God we have abortion services,' even though what I went through wasn't an abortion."
