@manggagawa@LabanNgMasa "If someone says they oppose decriminalization, ask them: have they read the bill?" -Atty. Clara Padilla of EnGendeRights, @pinsanorg spokesperson #DecriminalizeAbortionPH
@Brototi4@RightsPratigya@ReproRights Self-management of abortion pills and telemedicine prove to be the way during pandemics. Many countries such as Ireland, England, France included telemedicine, self-administration of medical abortion pills in their abortion regulations to respond to the #COVID-19 pandemic.
@RightsPratigya@ReproRights@Prabsbajra#Covid19India highlighted challenges to accessing safe abortion services. GoI issued #telemedicine guidelines in March 2020 but abortion services not included. Self-managed abortion must be recognized as essential public health right at all times
@RightsPratigya@ReproRights@Brototi4 State authorities used emergency orders during #COVID-19 to restrict women’s reproductive rights & delaying or denying access to abortion. See https://t.co/IWEcvLXvou
@RightsPratigya@ReproRights@Brototi4 During the #COVID-19 pandemic, governments around the world have attempted to block or limit access to reproductive health care, including abortion.
@RightsPratigya@ReproRights@Prabsbajra Comprehensive, accurate & evidence-based information on abortion services information about abortion care is critical to ensuring that pregnant persons can exercise this right in reality
@RightsPratigya@ReproRights@Brototi4 Lack of financial resources, family support, awareness about the existence of abortion services and its legality prevents pregnant persons from accessing #SafeAbortionForEveryone, especially where public health system is not equipped
@Prabsbajra@RightsPratigya@ReproRights Recent study by @ReproRights along with @NLSIUofficial and @NLUDofficial shows how abortion stigma, views about adolescent sexuality, sexuality norms & ableist perceptions create chilling effect for adolescent girls & unmarried women, persons with disability & LGBTQI persons.
