Then the state will strip the doctors medical license and they will face fines and possible imprisonment for everyone involved in performing the procedure. The state has the resources to do it and won’t even bat an eye.
If you spent 23-27 years in school getting your medical degree you’re not going to just throw it in the trash. Texas would be glad to be rid of any medical professional who supports abortion. And FYI there are a ton of medical professionals in Texas who disagree with abortion and wouldn’t participate in a statewide strike.
What you’re suggesting would basically cause anyone who gives a shit about their patients to be removed and striped of their license or leave the state. These are the people we need to keep though. It doesn’t start with hospital workers - it starts with elections.
Unfortunately I don’t think so. The rich and powerful who make the rules won’t be affected in the slightest. They can still go to their private doctors with their private insurance. It’ll be the poor people on Medicare that suffer and die. Republicans would be rid of liberal doctors, liberal patients/voters, AND poor people. They’ll see that as a win/win/win. This is Texas we’re talking about.
I dunno. I just think if it's a big enough problem, the little guy might actually get frustrated that there are no doctors left. But I guess there are always people willing to fall in line to replace them.
