The court ruled that the lower court made a mistake in ruling that the woman, Kate Cox, who is more than 20 weeks pregnant, was entitled to a medical exception.

Ms. Cox asked the lower court for approval after she learned that her fetus had a fatal condition, and after several trips to the emergency room.
In short, the life or health exemptions to abortion bans in Republican-controlled states are meaningless.
I have yet to hear about any medical exemptions, this was the first which was then discarded.
This rejection will have a chilling affect on the willingness of others to try for an exemption as well.
Even worse, it sounds like it wasn’t entirely settled, just delayed until after it makes no difference
