Whistleblowers allege that the NHS in Great Britain covered up a large spike in suicides after restrictions on trans care. The number of suicides appears to have been omitted from the Cass Review.

At this point, no, this is international.

E: ok, so right after posting I realised you said international not intentional, but I'm leaving my original reply as is, for those who might not know:

For example, the board of the review, that didn't include any trans people (because "bias"), did include at least 3 (that we know of) members of SEGM(so called " Society For Evidence-Based Gender Medicine", but really just a transphobic org), as well as being commissioned by an openly transphobic government.

It was always intended to be anti-trans.

Ah yes, the report that the author immediately backpedaled from and said hormone blockers must be available to anyone who needs them regardless of age? Perfect legislation material. The minute it comes out.

But of course they're not going to acknowledge that. Science was never the point. Quality of care was never the point.
