Transphobic report by UK pediatrician Hilary Cass released
==========
On Tuesday evening, Dr. Hilary Cass released a transphobic report commissioned by the British/UK National Health Service (NHS), calling for restrictions on gender-affirming care and social transition, and advocating for blocking transgender adults under the age of 25 from entering adult care. The report dismissed over 100 studies on the efficacy of transgender care as not suitably high quality. The report featured 32 recommendations on how transgender care should be conducted within NHS England, endorsing the idea that being transgender may be caused by anxiety, depression, and OCD issues, and claiming that transgender individuals can be 'influenced' into being trans. The report was released alongside reviews of the evidence surrounding transgender care, dismissing 101 out of 103 studies as not of 'sufficiently high quality.' The Cass Review seems to have emulated the Florida Review, which employed a similar method to justify bans on trans care in the state. Experts in transgender healthcare from around the world have voiced their opposition to the report's findings. The release of the report is likely to significantly affect transgender care in England and could have negative impacts on transgender people globally if the recommendations are put into effect.
