NegativeWorld Affairs
- A year-long investigation into the Free Birth Society (FBS), a North Carolina-based organization promoting unassisted childbirth, has revealed alarming findings, including dangerous medical claims and links to stillbirths. The FBS, led by Emilee Saldaya and Yolande Norris-Clark, has gained significant attention through its podcast, which has millions of downloads.
- The investigation raises serious concerns about the safety of the practices promoted by the FBS, particularly as it has been linked to tragic outcomes for mothers and infants, such as the case of Esau Lopez, who experienced asphyxiation during childbirth in Pennsylvania.
- This situation highlights ongoing debates surrounding childbirth practices and the influence of social media on health decisions, as the FBS's promotion of unassisted births challenges established medical guidelines and raises questions about the responsibilities of influencers in the health sector.
