I was under the assumption that complications from medical abortions are within 24 hours of taking the medicines.
Mifepristone is taken first, usually at a healthcare facility. 24-48 hours later misoprostol is taken. Cramping and bleeding usually start 1-4 hours after misoprostol dosing, with the heaviest bleeding a couple of hours later. Bleeding normally slows within 24hrs. Those for whom it doesn't slow are the ones who end up in the ED. That can be a few days s/p mifepristone ingestion.

I sure hope the average person is realizing how easy any statistic can say whatever the presenter wants it to say.

Who is impartial? Everyone has biases. That’s why studies like these are documented and can be reviewed to determine if they pass muster scientifically.

I found this with a simple google search.
ETA: looks like the study was retracted for methodology and bias concerns, assuming it is the same one from the OP article.

do you apply that same logic to you 'news sources' ???
Yes. But this is aimed more at scientific studies like the ones bought and paid for by big pharma or back in the day when the tobacco industry sponsored so-called studies.
It's pretty wise too pay some attention to who the messenger is and not just the message.

No immediate test. Both drugs leave your system pretty fast. One of them within a day.
How will they test for a drug that isn't in their system by the time they get to the hospital
