CDC: US Abortions Dropped 2% Post-Roe Overturn

TL;DR Summary
A CDC report reveals that the number of abortions in the US fell by only 2% in 2022 despite state bans following the overturning of Roe v Wade. The report highlights a divide in access, with some states enacting strict bans while others have protective laws, leading to increased abortions in those areas. The availability of abortion pills and telemedicine has helped maintain abortion numbers. However, the report's data is incomplete, as some states do not provide comprehensive information. The sustainability of current abortion access, reliant on donations and support organizations, remains uncertain.
