“A first-of-its-kind analysis by ProPublica found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% after Texas’ near-total abortion ban went into effect in September 2021. The analysis also identified at least 120 in-hospital deaths of pregnant or postpartum women in 2022 and 2023 — an increase of dozens of deaths from a comparable period before the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Same name. Same campus. Same Yellow Jacket pride. 🐝 Michael Carson Sr. and his son, Michael Carson, both work at Georgia Tech. Carson Sr. drives the Stinger's Green route, while Carson serves as building coordinator for @GeorgiaTechISyE. The father-and-son duo proves that for some families, Tech is more than a workplace. 💛 | c.gatech.edu/4eqFns0
