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.

    Maggots will swarm even the finest food if no one’s watching it and it’s thrown out into the dumpster. It looks like they’ve been heavily downvoted at least.

      The mods are evidently still working. We’ll see which maggots remain.

      Yeah, that happens on reddit too.
