Utah's largest health care provider looked like it was on the path to expanding gender-affirming surgery options for adults. But in January, the state passed a law banning gender-affirming care for minors. And now the hospital system says it will not offer those additional adult services.
I occasionally subject myself to NPR on the commute, and heard this piece yesterday. Journalists claim to be puzzled as to why this hospital would cancel this program after setting it up and hiring a "surgeon" to lead it. They refused to make the connection between the lack of chemically castrated minors and the need for customers for these assholes.
