Roe v. Wade, abortion

Abortions slightly declined the year Roe v. Wade was overturned, CDC says
The total number of abortions in the U.S. only slightly dropped by about 2% in 2022, the year the Supreme Court overturned the landmark decision Roe. v. Wade.
After Roe ended, an unintended outcome for abortion rates
After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, many expected abortion rates to drop. Instead, they rose. Here's why.
Abortions Fell By Only 2% In Year Roe Was Overturned, CDC Report Shows
The CDC reported that 613,383 abortions were performed by providers in 48 reporting areas in 2022, a roughly 2% decrease from the 622,108 abortions reported in 2021 (Roe was overturned in June 2022).
Abortions fell 2% the year Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade: CDC
An annual abortion surveillance report, published Wednesday by the CDC, found the number of abortions performed in the U.S. fell slightly in 2022.
Abortions dropped the year Roe fell, reversing upward trend
Legally induced abortions decreased in 2022, the year that Roe v. Wade was overturned, the CDC said in its latest annual report. Why it matters: Abortions had ticked upward slightly between 2019 and 2021 after years of declines before the Supreme Court's ruling shifted the landscape and several states put new bans and restrictions in place.
New CDC report shows what happened to the abortion rate after Roe was overturned
Abortions declined by just 2% in 2022 compared to 2021, according to new surveillance data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Number of abortions barely declined after Roe v. Wade was overturned, CDC says
Despite a wave of state abortion bans after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, the number of abortions in the U.S. dropped just 2% that year.
Despite abortion bans, number barely dropped after Roe v. Wade overturned
