US millennial women saw their well-being decline, a first in modern times, per non-profit PRB.
Homicide, maternal mortality, and suicide rates have all increased for women aged 25 to 34.
The sudden reversal in progress for young women’s safety comes despite an improved economic status.
Contributing factors to the overall rise included the COVID-19 pandemic, which increased domestic violence rates, and a recent leap in gun violence incidents, the report also said.
Homicide is now also the leading cause of death for pregnant and postnatal women, more so than typical maternal mortality causes, the report noted.
From America fuck yeah to this in less than 20 years.
Impressive, Mr. Neoliberal.
Having worse maternal mortality than the 50s is an impressive feat to be sure.
America sure does love to find horrifying ways to be impressive
Something something Osama won
improved economic status for who, business insider?
The US is falling back into the Gilded Age while also taking the life expectancies and societal structure from the mid 1800’s. They’re more committed to historical accuracy than a Renaissance festival.
Is this worse than men of the same age range? Cause usually you hear about men having worse life expectancy, etc and the article doesn’t compare the two.
Because the study they’re writing about only pertains to women.
ah yeah, maybe I can’t read as well as I thought I could
The article isn’t really about men because it’s implying the reason women’s mortality is getting worse is because of a combination of Covid and also dudes killing their wives/girlfriends when they get pregnant since they can’t get an abortion anymore. There’s not really a male equivalent to compare it to.
People are gonna read “homicide and suicide up” and still blame vaccines for this.
Edit: murder and suicide up in pregnant women right when abortion becomes illegal…. 🤔
