U.S. maternal mortality rates are certain to rise as more states restrict abortion following the fall of Roe v. Wade.
Reasons for the racial disparities in those states and across the country are multifactorial, said Rachel Hardeman, Blue Cross endowed professor of health and racial equity at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health.
As for what Roe’s fall will do to maternal mortality’s racial disparities, “we are going to exacerbate that gap,” she said.As abortion bans come into place, so-called sanctuary states are absorbing more patients. Jackson said successful grassroots organizations should be leading the discussions around the country on how to prevent maternal deaths.
Hardeman said it will take an “all-hands-on-deck” approach to prevent maternal deaths, particularly preventing them among people of color. The next election cycle will be key to this, she said, and therefore doing everything to prevent voter suppression will be, too.
