She died from eclampsia. This could have been me. I had severe preeclampsia and an emergency C-section. I was lucky. How do we let women die from childbirth in one of the most developed countries in the world? Black and Brown women are especially at risk.

Tori Bowie's death is absolutely heartbreaking...eclampsia, preterm labour, you and your baby dying alone. What a nightmare, may their souls rest in peace.

Tianna Madison went into preterm labor and had a 26 week preemie.

Allyson Felix has pre-eclampsia and delivered her preemie at 32 weeks.

Tori Bowie had eclampsia and she and her baby both died.

The Black maternal health crisis in America is also a pediatric & neonatal crisis.

As of June 2023…3 of the 4 members of Team USA’s 4x100m relay team…who ran the SECOND fastest time in history, and brought home THEE gold medal…have nearly died or did die in childbirth.

We deserve better.

I can just imagine if this all star was in Cuba. The medical attention would have been top tier.

Preeclampsia/ Eclampsia for a black female in Cuba would have been admitted in the hospital at 30 weeks. With routine vitals/labs hourly.

Black females are taken care of in Cuba!

Dory Edwards Rebecca Overholt gentlystream🌿 uché blackstock, md Oh no no no I take back what I said on our other thread about not assuming the worst about people. Now you're pulling in mental health history!? Eclampsia can happen FAST and not leave anyone time to reach out for help

Laura The New York Times L Johnson I ate plenty of protein and still ended up with pre eclampsia. I was in hospital for 7 weeks before giving birth to my son (3 weeks early and 5 pounds 9).

Cardiovascular diseases (including preeclampsia/eclampsia spectrum) are the top causes of maternal mortality in the US, & disproportionately affect black women at all income/education levels. We MUST do better. It’s truly a matter of life and death

Your source doesn’t even talk about diseases that are associated. It talks about ASSAULT. Which doesn’t happen EXCLUSIVELY to sex workers.

We’re talking about eclampsia, a disease associated with pregnancy. Enough with the strawman.

Anti-vaxxers spent the last month claiming Olympic gold medalist Tori Bowie died due to vaccines.

This has forced her family to release autopsy, showing Tori went into labour at 8 months pregnant and died due to eclampsia and respiratory distress.

Leave families alone, ghouls.
