While abortion is legal in the US territory of Guam, it can be almost impossible to get. There are no doctors left on the island to perform abortions, so patients rely on telemedicine. If a pregnant person can't use abortion pills, their next best option is an 8-hour flight to Hawaii. Just two doctors are licensed and willing to provide care in Guam, though they are both based in Hawaii, The Times reported. On the island, anti-abortion sentiment persists among citizens, many of whom are Catholic, and within the local government, The Times reported.
