Abortion on demand: These 6 states allow women to get pregnancy-ending drugs by phone or online
Fox News
Last week, California became the sixth state to make it legal for health care providers to offer abortion via telehealth. An OB/GYN weighed in about the potential risks.
Women can also have medication — including abortion pills — shipped to them from a California pharmacy, according to a press release from the California State Senate. "A full history and physical exam are necessary to ensure gestational age, pregnancy location and any pertinent medical or surgical history."

The bill also protects California doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other health care providers from any criminal or civil actions — and prevents them from losing their license or malpractice insurance, the release stated.
