Exclusive—Janet Morana: Ectopic Pregnancy Deaths Were Not Caused by Pro-Life Laws

When then-President Joe Biden changed the rules about abortion drugs and allowed them to be ordered online and delivered by mail, everyone in the pro-life movement expressed concern about mothers dying from undiagnosed ectopic pregnancies.

\n\n

That’s what’s happening, according to the news outlet ProPublica, which found that 200 women died from 2020 to 2025, compared to 100 for the six years before that. But instead of blaming the spike on the increase in “telehealth’’ chemical abortion, the report points to laws protecting babies from abortion as the culprit. As proof, they offer stories from two women who were turned away from hospitals in Texas and Arkansas. And they rely on a whole bunch of guesses and at least one outrageous lie.

“Telehealth clinics ask questions that filter out patients at higher risk of ectopic pregnancy and follow up with those they treat to screen for symptoms.”

\n\n

This is according to Ushma Upadhyay, who is identified as a researcher at the University of California, San Francisco. Studies on abortion performed by the University of California, San Francisco, generally find abortion to be safe and absolutely the right thing to do under any circumstances, so Upadhyay’s lie, while preposterous, is not surprising.
