FIA -“1. Hatzalah does not often take pregnant women to the hospital, as they usually go with their husband or by car service.”
What does often mean? Yes, there are plenty of calls that are routine OB transports and some of these are actually childbirth. Don’t make it sound that all their OB calls are actually deliveies.
“2. Women across America (Jews and Gentiles) use standard 911 EMS service that has a chance that the paramedic and ambulance crew will be male or female. The patient rarely ever knows in advance. Yet there is no major outcry by American women to institute a “female ambulance service” due to “women’s special needs” only addressable by “other women”.”
I’m not a spokesman for EN, but don’t compare Jewish women to Goyishe ones. EN claims that many Frum women don’t want to be treated during OB emergs by Frum males. Esp. if these Male providers are people they personally know from around the neighborhood. I don’t think they’d go all out to start such an org. if they didn’t have many women who felt this way.
