Abortions Are Down 3% One Year After End Of Roe v Wade

• https://www.zerohedge.com by Tyler Durden

Between April 2022 and March 2023, the number of monthly abortions performed in the United States decreased by an average of around 2,850 following the ban or restriction of the procedure.

As Statista's Katharina Buchholz details below15 states have banned most abortions or have limited them to 6-weeks of gestation, a time when many pregnancies still go undetected. Four more states have restricted abortions to 12 to 15 weeks, which is when a large majority of abortions occur. While five states are still in legal limbo, 27 continue to allow abortions up to the fetal viability limit formerly defined by Roe, at around 23 to 25 weeks. Most recently, a 6-week ban in Iowa failed in front of the state's Supreme Court and the tightening of bans is still expected in Arizona and Florida, among others.
