Some Hospitals Pause Gender-Affirming Care After Trump's Executive Order

Huff Post  

Hospitals in Colorado, Virginia and the nation’s capital said Thursday they have paused gender-affirming care for young people as they evaluate President Donald Trump’s executive order aimed at cutting federal support for such care. The language in Trump’s executive order — using words such as “maiming,” “sterilizing” and “mutilation” — contradicts what is typical for gender-affirming care in the United States. It also labels guidance from the World Professional Association for Transgender Health as “junk science.” WPATH said in a statement that restrictions and bans on “access to necessary medical care for transgender youth are harmful to patients and their families.” Gender-affirming medical care for transgender youth isn’t common. The Denver hospital said Trump’s order would affect the mental health of its transgender patients, and that they would continue to receive primary and behavioral health care.
