The WallBuilders Show Debunking Media Myths: How Statistical Manipulation Distorts Pro-Life Victories- with Dr. Michael New
When media headlines scream "50% increase in sepsis" following Texas pro-life legislation, it's time to look beyond the percentages and examine the actual numbers. In this eye-opening episode, we're joined by Dr. Michael New who methodically dismantles a recent ProPublica report claiming Texas women face increased dangers since abortion restrictions were enacted.
The truth? The much-publicized "crisis" amounts to just 28 additional sepsis cases annually out of approximately 400,000 births in Texas – a statistical footnote being weaponized to undermine life-affirming legislation. Meanwhile, a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association confirms these same laws have saved over 22,000 lives.
We dive deep into how statistical manipulation creates misleading narratives around pro-life victories. This discussion equips you with the factual ammunition needed when confronting exaggerated claims about pro-life legislation.
Perhaps most surprisingly, we explore a medical breakthrough rarely covered in mainstream reporting: abortion pill reversal. Dr. New explains how women who take the first pill in a chemical abortion regimen can often reverse the process through progesterone treatments, resulting in hundreds of healthy births.
The conversation expands to examine promising pro-life developments at the federal level, including the reinstatement of the Hyde Amendment and Mexico City Policy, plus new appointees who support regulation of dangerous chemical abortion pills currently being distributed through mail without proper medical supervision.
