BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN CONWAY — Nicole Nordlund of Madison and Wendy Richardson of Conway, both former Republican state Legislature candidates and mothers of school-age children, went before the Conway School Board on Monday with a message: Make masks go away when students return to classrooms in the school district this fall. They told the board they fear the schools are “using coercive tactics to force children into medical devices.” “I’m here to talk about mandatory masks for autumn,” Nordlund said. “Since there have been studies of the masks carrying serious illness and transmitting now to students, who would be responsible should a student become ill from one of these pathogens?” she asked, adding, “In my experience, the schools have usurped powers to make medical decisions for parents.” Ava Frechette as Spiker and Rosa Tepe as Sponge run from the giant peach during the opening night of Arts in Motion’s production of “James and Nordlund said each year at about the Giant Peach” at the Ham Arena at 87 West Main St. in Conway Village.

But in terms of the mask rule in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, “we are allowing the schools to make choices about the acceptance of a med- ical device on our children,” she said, “and I don’t think that is within the rights of the school,” Nordlund said. She added that “many, many thou- sands of parents now feel the same way.

Bridgton Hospital phasing out obstectrics, expanding services

BRIDGTON, Maine — Bridgton Hospital announced Wednesday that it is phasing out its obstetrics ser- vices. The hospital is a part of Cen- tral Maine Healthcare, an integrated healthcare delivery system serving 400,000 people living in central, western and Midcoast Maine, with hospitals including Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston and Rumford Hospital. According to a press release the hospital is refocusing its resources to expand health-care services that will have the most impact on the health and well-being of the community. Demographic and other trends call for a greater investment in areas including pediatrics, primary care, cardiology, orthopedics, urology, podi- atry, general surgery, gynecology and gastroenterology. As the hospital deepens its focus on those areas, it will be phasing out its obstetrical services effective Sept 17. “We did not come to this point easily, Bridgton Hospital is part of Central Maine Healthcare.

Dr. Brianne Teaboldt of Coos County Family Health Services agreed with Gordon’s analysis noting that thew lack of funding and support would be devastating for the organization. She noted that the result of the legislation will be that the number of preg- nancies will increase, adding that there isn’t room at the Androscog- gin Valley Hospital to support the number of beds that would be nec- essary for additional births. She said the area has experienced a COVID-boom and that it is anticipated there will be 50-plus pregnancies in the coming months to fi t into the 25-bed hospital. Teaboldt also noted that Family Health Services serves a huge underserved population in the North Country and that lack of funds could restrict access for patients. Kayla Montgomery, the vice-president of public affairs for Planned Parenthood New Hamp- shire Action Fund and Planned Parenthood of North New England called the new legislation unconscionable. She said that some anti-reproduc- tive health law makers are willing to take the whole system down to combat abortion. “This is the most anti-re- productive budget we have ever seen,” she said. She specifi cally noted the mandatory ultra- sound provision as an unnecessary restriction that will create a signifi - cant change in how care is handled around the state.
