A recent study out of Finland challenges the widely held belief that gender-transition treatment for young people is life-saving by showing no evidence that it prevents suicide deaths. The study, reported by the @NYPost, contradicts claims made by several American health professionals and organizations such as the @ACLU, @AmerAcadPeds, and the @AmerMedicalAssn. Finnish researchers found that suicide deaths were approximately four times higher among gender-distressed young people, attributing this to severe psychiatric problems rather than gender distress itself. This revelation comes amidst a broader discussion on the efficacy and implications of gender-affirming care, with critics and supporters voicing strong opinions on both sides.
Consumer groups have blasted a $250m tax on high-voltage power line land that pushes up household bills, which is set to soar when Victoria’s poles and wire network expands. > https://t.co/Gv4NgXgjR0 https://t.co/55Ak5ydXEp
Victoria’s hospitals are in more than $1.46bn of debt, leaked data reveals, and insiders warn that will blow out to $3bn in a few months — raising fears over the state’s health funding. > https://t.co/kyZNmV63Ag https://t.co/JnHasozUco
No one who was scientifically literate ever believed that "gender affirming care" prevented suicide. Woke butchers promoted the idea. Cowards enabled them. Narcissists virtue-signaled, as usual. https://t.co/6jSvlUT66R
Shocking watchdog files have revealed that in five years, 36 babies died and many suffered harm after “adverse events” and errors in Victoria’s maternity healthcare. > https://t.co/s5wsIVewqP https://t.co/usZk79IYtD
I report in today’s @NYPost: A major new study out of Finland refutes the common claim, made by groups such as @ACLU, @AmerAcadPeds and @AmerMedicalAssn, that gender-transition treatment for young people is “life saving.” This study found no such evidence. https://t.co/pQDY5UQzxv https://t.co/RQBRQmQju1 https://t.co/EU6N3j2zMp
The CDC says 80% of U.S. pregnancy-related deaths are preventable and new data shows maternal health issues are caused by barriers to care. https://t.co/PQntysZaGO
Women with postpartum depression found to have an almost threefold increased risk of mortality. Why are they dying early deaths? Yes, suicide rates are higher, but the real reason is that mental disorders are metabolic disorders. #BrainEnergy https://t.co/G7fAccCKY2
Health officials analyzing the increasing U.S. death rate have honed in on maternal mental illness as the leading cause of deaths related to pregnancies in the United States. https://t.co/H7IIbh3xRG
Jimmy Dore is going deeper into transphobia. Here he quotes the American College Of Pediatricians (far-right anti-LGBTQ group) saying that gender-affirming care has no mental health benefits, and reads it from the far-right Epoch Times. https://t.co/wWhDVotgdL
Maternal mental illness is the leading cause of pregnancy-related deaths in the U.S., according to a new evidence review — but initiatives developed to combat the issue often fail to prioritize mental health. https://t.co/nKcchW2S5j
It's shocking that so many mothers die in childbirth in the U.S. Many of them literally bleed to death. https://t.co/Jj9beuVqfJ
So the argument trans surgery saves lives? It’s bull. https://t.co/VWLBTsHfoM
"The Finnish researchers concluded suicide deaths were about 4 times higher, but still rare, in gender-distressed young people. Their higher suicide rate was tied to their much higher rate of severe psychiatric problems, not to their gender distress." https://t.co/h2eVP0dxfC
THREAD by @benryanwriter on a new STUDY —> Gender affirming care does not prevent suicide. It’s interesting that the study, like others that call into question claims by many American health professionals, is out of Europe, not the US. https://t.co/5hAgcSmnD6
No, Youth Gender-Transition Treatment Is Not 'Life Saving', Study Finds The first ever study to test the widely made claim that youth medical gender-transition treatment prevents suicide deaths found no such evidence, I report for @NYPost. 🧵⬇️ https://t.co/TE9oT9DU3S
