Original Note:
Ectopic pregnancies, and thus other similar situations in which the mother, the fetus, or both are likely to die before childbirth can occur, are not considered the same as abortions. https://www.plannedparenthood.org/learn/pregnancy/ectopic-pregnancy https://utswmed.org/medblog/truth-about-ectopic-pregnancy-care/ As such, every state exempts life-threatening situations from abortion bans. https://www.kff.org/womens-health-policy/issue-brief/a-review-of-exceptions-in-state-abortions-bans-implications-for-the-provision-of-abortion-services/
