From the Daily Caller: The University of Virginia (UVA) Board of Visitors (BOV) adopted a resolution ending transgender-related medical practices for new patients, Republican Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin announced Friday.
“Common sense and medical ethics have prevailed. I’m grateful to the University of Virginia Board of Visitors for its action today to stop harmful transgender treatments for minors and to transfer existing patients to other providers,” Youngkin said, while also sharing a post from CBS 19 News reporter Sarah Allen that included a copy of the resolution.
The resolution determined that current transgender patients could continue to receive treatment but new patients would have to be ” referred to alternate private healthcare providers until further notice.” Current patients could also be referred to private healthcare facilities.
UVA Health also announced the BOV’s decision. The BOV’s vote “reaffirms our commitment to offer our patients the best care we can, in accordance with state and federal law,” UVA Health said in part.
