Actually, the 24 hour test was explain at a prenatal class we received for parents coming to the hospital. In 1990 and 1993.
In 2019 I attended the same class with my daughter when her husband was deployed. They talked about all of the state tests.
She probably didn’t attended those “required” sessions. She probably didn’t read the information provided.
She sounds like she is the first woman to have a baby.
I am actually disappointed in her, as these tests are used to prescreen for very dangerous developmental issues at a point where intervention can help.
But she is a celebrity. So, she knows better.
Thanks for the lucid reply to my post. However, I don’t think you addressed the excerpt from the article or the article itself.
I’m no celebrity, but I have seen plenty of evidence that the medical community thinks they are in charge, not the patient.
They are experts. The best experts disagree with one another on many things. Mediocre experts just go with the “consensus,” or proceed from “policy.” More importantly, it’s the patient who has to live or die with the consequences.
One excuse for socialism is that the experts know best and should be in charge. Hint. They never will be in charge. The state will be in charge. Hitler’s medical system had little trouble following orders.
Having read the excerpt and the article itself, I agree much more than I disagree with her statements. Perhaps she is a celebrity. Novak Djokovic is certainly a celebrity. When they stand up for their freedom, they stand up for mine as well.
