Irish abortion statistics are now a story of two parts.
Huge success in care <10 weeks by GPs, 10-12 weeks by hospitals. Hats off to both.
Just 24 patients accessed care for risk to life and health.
No change from before the law changed.
Women continue to travel. This must end.

A progressive and necessary development that allows remote consultation in abortion care. It will be much appreciated by patients who seek and need this service at this most difficult time.

GPs, clinics and hospital obgyn continuing to provide an abortion service.
Made easier for patients by @SimonHarrisTD emergency measures. Allowing those self isolating and cocooning due to illness to access timely, expert medical help.

Adaptability in the time of #COVID19ireland.
Privilege as President of ICGP to open Zoom meeting today of training for new GP abortion providers. Committed teachers, committed providers. Ensuring community service will continue at a time when patients face particular stressors.

GPs are getting reports of women delaying making contact for abortion provision as not sure if the service is continuing in the community.
IT IS!
Please encourage patients to phone ASAP.
RETWEET please.

A very welcome development.
It will ensure women continue to receive a community based abortion service during this pandemic.
Even if patient #COVID19 ve or their GP is remote working due to self isolation.
Thankyou @SimonHarrisTD

Health Minister Simon Harris has told Dáil that women looking to access abortion services will be able to consult remotely with their GPs.
Some TDs were seeking to remove the three-day waiting period for women to access medication to terminate pregnancy.

Seems like there's never been a better time for all governments everywhere to allow medical abortion pills consultations to happen over the phone and tablets sent by post. #AbortionWithoutBorders

Serious concerns for pts and GPs re accessing abortion care during #COVID19IRELAND Mandatory 2 visits and 3 day wait but restricted access . 14 year criminal sanction on GP for any change to this.

Many women already travel long distances, have child care issues, may be self-isolating, may herself have symptoms.
GP service curtailed or closed if GP ill.
If lockdown occurs no travel abroad.
An appalling vista...
Change needed to regulations with
action NOW.

The bpas Finsbury Park clinic this morning. No problems with anti-abortion groups before and now there are 45 protesters outside. This is a direct result of @ukhomeoffice’s refusal to take action - giving the impression that harassing women outside clinics is acceptable. #BackOff
