Irish abortion statistics are now a story of two parts. Huge success in care <10 weeks by GPs, 10-12 weeks by hospitals. Hats off to both. Just 24 patients accessed care for risk to life and health. No change from before the law changed. Women continue to travel. This must end.

A progressive and necessary development that allows remote consultation in abortion care. It will be much appreciated by patients who seek and need this service at this most difficult time. #carecantwait #wewillprovide #COVID19ireland @freesafelegal @HSELive @DocsforChoice

Huge thanks to @CMOIreland @roinnslainte and @SimonHarrisTD for their collaboration. We can now offer remote consultation for abortion care during the COVID 19 emergency. This will make a huge difference to women and providers @Startdoctors @ICGPnews @NWIHP

GPs, clinics and hospital obgyn continuing to provide an abortion service. Made easier for patients by @SimonHarrisTD emergency measures. Allowing those self isolating and cocooning due to illness to access timely, expert medical help. #abortionishealthcare #thenorthisnext

Adaptability in the time of #COVID19ireland. Privilege as President of ICGP to open Zoom meeting today of training for new GP abortion providers. Committed teachers, committed providers. Ensuring community service will continue at a time when patients face particular stressors.

With the Covid-19 crisis we know more than ever how much we depend on each other. I offer a warm and sincere thanks to the great, great many people, inside and outside the Oireachtas, who helped me to make social changes, sometimes thought of as impossible, possible!

Today is my last day as a member of the 25th Seanad. Over the last four years in Seanad Éireann I did my best to put the honour and gift of my appointment into public service for the benefit of the people and groups whose lives and daily struggles are often not seen or heard.

A very welcome development. It will ensure women continue to receive a community based abortion service during this pandemic. Even if patient #COVID19 +ve or their GP is remote working due to self isolation. Thankyou @SimonHarrisTD @Startdoctors #wewillprovide @freesafelegal

Health Minister Simon Harris has told Dáil that women looking to access abortion services will be able to consult remotely with their GPs. Some TDs were seeking to remove the three-day waiting period for women to access medication to terminate pregnancy.

Many women already travel long distances, have child care issues, may be self-isolating, may herself have symptoms. GP service curtailed or closed if GP ill. If lockdown occurs no travel abroad. An appalling vista... Change needed to regulations with action NOW. @freesafelegal
