I’m sure anyone on this website, currently reading this article, has been paying attention to news from Gaza long enough to remember the original reports about the conditions for women giving birth there following the bombing of Al-Shifa hospital.
If not, I’ll give you an update before you listen to one woman’s journey on the Reveal podcast.
Without hospitals, medication, doctors, or anesthesia, women were having c-sections without sedation or pain medication.
Ill give you a moment to let that sink In.
Yes. You heard correctly. C-sections without anesthesia OR sterile environments. It’s no surprise that some new mothers end up dying from infection.
I’m sure all of this will be included in the podcast, but that is just a quick recap on the conditions that we learned about a few months ago.
