Abortion by pill is becoming more widespread in America

Changes to medical technology will change the politics of the country’s original culture war. Aid Access is a non-profit that prescribes and posts abortion pills, mostly from overseas, to women in America. Research into the non-profit, which was established in 2018, highlights the role that abortion pills by mail can play when health services are stretched. Abigail Aiken of the University of Texas at Austin says that within the first few weeks of the pandemic, demand surged. In Texas, after all abortions were cancelled for several weeks, demand nearly doubled. TelAbortion, an fda-approved programme run by Gynuity Health Projects, which operates in 13 states, has also seen growing demand.
