The new law that bans gender-affirming care for minors also mandates that adult patients seeking trans health care sign an informed consent form. It also requires a physician to oversee any health care related to transitioning, and for people to see that doctor in person. Those rules have proven particularly onerous because many people received care from nurse practitioners and used telehealth. The law also made it a crime to violate the new requirements.
Another new law that allows doctors and pharmacists to refuse to treat transgender people further limits their options.
Terrible news, of course, but I’d like to thank OP for including a little of the article. It means, in my blog, I can link to this page on Lemmy, instead of linking to the article and all the ads no doubt awaiting readers there…
I don’t think AP has any ads. They make their money by selling their news to other companies.
Might be time for you to look at the link in the post
I did not see any ads but this might be because of my adblocker :)
But yes, I also read the follow-up from @DougHolland@lemmy.world
