What a parlous state of affairs in the US regarding abortion

Emergency rooms refusing to treat pregnant patients in post Roe v Wade US, documents reveal
Complaints that pregnant women were turned away from US emergency rooms spiked in 2022 after the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade.
It has raised alarms about the state of emergency pregnancy care in the country, especially in states that have enacted strict abortion laws.
The Supreme Court will weigh in on the enforcement of the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act, a law that guarantees medical care for pregnancy-related emergencies.

@RedBaron Parlous is the word I used because it portrays what I think of the situation.
Parlous - Full of danger and uncertainty.
