America is such a strange place—I know a lot of conservatives will probably cheer in response to this doctor leaving the state. The resulting huge void in the ladder of pediatric care and the poor health outcomes for children are just collateral damages in the struggle for republicans to be able to openly hate and discriminate against the queer community again. It’s ironic (or maybe just hypocritical?) that the republicans have pivoted all their messaging to “we have to protect the children,” while directly creating situations like this that hurt children.
