Putting Women First - at work and at home - a good thing for an Ob/GYN, husband, and Dad.

@MeghanMcCain Democracy in the balance.

Thank you @RepJoeMorelle for taking the time to talk about issues impacting OBGYN’s and their patients as Congress moves forward with addressing #COVID19. Thanks for helping ACOG with #DeliveringTheFacts to Congress & offering solutions that work for women and their physicians.

#COVID19 Health Research-Please take this short survey about social distancing in the time of COVID-19. It will be helpful to my daughter Hannah in Public Health ⁦@AmericanU⁩. Please share it as well. ⁦@ACOGAction⁩ ⁦@ACOGD2⁩ https://t.co/olaUhHSASz

The inadequate testing protocols increase risk of spreading #coronavirus. To test healthcare workers only if sick, even if they have been exposed, Is inadequate since they are spreading #Covid_19 infection before they show symptoms. #FlattenTheCurve @ACOGAction @CDCgov

What ACOG says matters. We are the voice for women and their providers in our state and federal governments.

[ACOG Action @ACOGAction]

Why #obgynaction? Because America's decision-makers rely on @ACOG and its members to give them #NoSpinJustScience. Watch our #CLC2020 now! https://t.co/Cf8mqFk0qb

@raebo13 on why @acog #CLC2020's #1 Ask is to expand #Medicaid to 12mos postpartum (PP):
- 1 in 3 women have coverage disruptions before/during/after pregnancy
- 33% of deaths occur 7-365 days PP (+uncounted overdose & suicide deaths)
