The new law that bans gender-affirming care for minors also mandates that adult patients seeking trans health care sign an informed consent form. It also requires a physician to oversee any health care related to transitioning, and for people to see that doctor in person. Those rules have proven particularly onerous because many people received care from nurse practitioners and used telehealth. The law also made it a crime to violate the new requirements.
Another new law that allows doctors and pharmacists to refuse to treat transgender people further limits their options.
I don’t think AP has any ads. They make their money by selling their news to other companies.
I’m genetically allergic to ads, and have five adblockers running, but you got me curious so I went to the posted story on a different browser, without the blockers, and
MY EYES, MY EYES!!!
There’s an oversided banner ad, a floating and moving video, soon a popup ad that blocks the whole page, and more animated ads in the sidebar as you scroll down.
Sigh. I don’t object to ads that sit there waiting to be read, but I can’t stand the ads that block what you’re there to see, ads that follow your mouse, ads that wave and shout and jump around for attention, and my favorite at many TV news sites, the last ad that pops up when you scroll your mouse toward closing the tab.
I don’t even believe in hell, but if it exists it’s jammed full of people who worked in advertising. :)

I did not see any ads but this might be because of my adblocker :)
But yes, I also read the follow-up from @[email protected]
