Abortion law blamed for delays harming Georgia mothers
A survey of 38 OB-GYNs by ACOG and Senator Ossoff finds nearly half witnessed cases where care was delayed due to Georgia’s abortion law, causing death or health complications. Doctors say laws are written by nonmedical hands and hinder medical judgment amid six-week fetal cardiac activity limits and narrow exceptions.

Health data cuts threaten tracking of deaths and disease
The Trump administration’s first 100 days reportedly eliminated more than a dozen health surveillance programs at the CDC and across HHS, including those tracking abortions, pregnancies, injuries, lead poisoning, and youth smoking. Critics warn erasing these programs leaves the nation in the dark about health trends while the core National Center for Health Statistics remains mostly intact. A shift to a new agency, the Administration for a Healthy America, is proposed for some remaining work.

Government halts study on flu shot experiences in Black communities
A Trump administration move cancels a Denver based trust and vaccines study during the flu season, shelving data analysis. The action frustrates participants who valued community voices, as public health funding cuts ripple across CDC led data programs, measles and whooping cough outbreaks rise, and vaccine discussions intensify.
