US Abortions

CDC stopped reporting the actual number of abortions in the US after 2015 and now reports an “abortion rate” that reports abortions per 1000 population. I suspect Obama approved this change to confuse us. 

This “abortion rate” is provided by the statistician who drowned in a lake with a mean depth of 3 feet.

Assuming that CDC didn’t underreport US abortions from 1970 to 2015, the total number of abortions are close to the total number of immigrants who were brought in to the US from 1970 to 2015.

For 2014, the Guttmacher Institute reported 926,200 abortions, an abortion rate of 14.6 abortions per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44 years. Guttmacher data is higher than CDC.

2014      926,200

2017      862,320

Others are claiming 60 million total abortions in US since 1974.
