For certain data scientists, these statistics also suggest a disturbing trend: essential statistics policy.
“It’s so clinically dishonest,” said UMHMA UPADHYAY, a public health scientist at the University of San Francisco in California, which includes chairs.
Zeroing out is statistically unlikely, Uphadhyay said, and pregnancy “will need a lot of danger” and in many cases the care of the emergency abortion “.
“We know that sometimes it is necessary to save the life of the pregnant person,” he said, “so there are abortions that happen in South Dako.”
State officials had a significant decline in the official number of abortion after the Supreme Court Roe v. Wade in June 2022.

Anti-abortion politicians and activists have mentioned these statistics to succeed claims to recover decades for decades to end the abortion.
“Certainly Arkansas Pregnant mothers can cause abortions of life and physical complications and babies are currently alive in Arkansas,” Arkansas executive director is right for life. Press Statement. “That’s the victory and our situation.”
A spokesman of the Arkansas Department of Ashley Whitlow said the Department “cannot continue to leave abortions from a health facility”. State officials, said: “Includes data providers and facilities for induced abortion data as it requires Arkansas Act”.
The TV abortions observed by Wecount are not appearing in the official national numbers. For example, until April 2024, an average of 240 Telehealth counted an abortion in Arkansas.
The groups against abortion rights recognize that the state surveillance report does not tell the whole story of the care of the abortion that occurs in their states. Life Arkansas’s Mimms, he said he did not expect to inform the abortion situation, except the illegal procedure to prevent the patient’s death.
“Women are looking for abortions in Arkansas, whether it comes from an illegal or illegal abortion statement,” Mimms said new health health. “We’re not naive.”
The South Dakota Health Department “Health organizations gather information contained by the State organizations and indicates it,” Tia Kafka, his marketing and outreach director, can answer questions about statistics. Kafka refused to make a detailed question about abortions that are carried out in the state or characterization of errors.
Kim Flora, which serves as a director of the Justice Empowerment Network, provides funds and practical support that the South Dakota patients receive abortion care, expressed unbelievable in official state figures.

“For better or for worse, government data is official record,” said Ishan Mehta, Media and Democracy directors in the ordinary cause, non-interest areas of interest. “You are not reporting data. You are feeding on a ecosystem, which will be much larger.”
State governments and credible researchers, including Wecount and Guttmacher Institute, including research teams in countries that support abortion rights, said the Reproductive Health Health Research Group that needs to be drilled deeper, said Mehta.
“This will create a historic disc for archives and researchers who will look at the long trend of decades and researchers and great public policies that mother health care people affect it,” Mehta said. And now, it doesn’t seem to think “doesn’t seem record among the branches of their actions.”
Culture of fear
Advances in abortion rights agree that abortions have been abortions in all laws that criminalize abortion. In the states with complete prohibition, 63 clinics have stopped offering abortions. And doctors and doctors have at least dozen criminal charges for care or helping abortions in the states.
The practitioners work in the culture of confusion and fear, which can make a doubt about accusing abortions, despite the efforts to be clear when abortion is accepted.
For example, South Dakota Health Secretary Melissa Magstadt Has released the video Abortion is legal when it is legal in the strict prohibition of the state.
The procedure is legal when a pregnant woman in South Dako is only when he faces death. Magstadt said doctors “document a sensible medical” and “documenting the process.”
The doctor convicted of illegal abortions punishes two-year imprisonment.
Where reliable statistics, Wecount academic researchers use symbols like dashes to indicate that they cannot capture reality in the ground accurately.
“We try to be clearly striving to zero. That’s why the Wecunt said, the UPadhyay, Health Department” should recognize that they are happening in their states, but they can’t count them for fear Because they created culture, the fear of litigation, as licenses were canceled. “
“Maybe that is to be said,” he said “instead of putting a zero in their reports.”
Mixed with bounds for abortion data
For decades, dozens of state abortion suppliers gather to gather detailed demographic information about women with abortions, race, city and county – and in some cases, marital status and the reason to end pregnancy.
Researchers gathering data related to abortion can be good public reasons for controlling public health statistics to evaluate the impact of changes in policy. This has become particularly important in the Supreme Court 2022 DOBBS decision, which completed the federal abortion rights and opens the courts of the Republic of the Republic and sometimes caring for abortion.
Isaac Maddomach-Zimet, Guttmacher Data Scientist, said the date collections of abortion opponents were overflowing clinics and patients to answer the intrusive questions. “The history of long tools that are being used to stigmatize abortion is quite long,” he said.
In South Dako, the clinic staff had told the weight of the uterus, including a doctors of women, and the weight of the pregnancy fabric, said the clinic took care of the abortions before Flora worked.
“If an abortion was procedural, you should write and write to the report,” Floren said.
Disease control and prevention centers have no authority to report abortions, including California, including California, do not have clinic or health suppliers to collect data. Each year, the CDC offers applications for abortion data from the Central Health Agency, for the neighborhoods of Columbia and the New York City, and state and jurisdictions report on their voluntary report to enter the CDC annual Report “abortion surveillance”.
In the states of public follow-up, hospitals, clinics and doctors promise, the number of abortion, “reports” resulting from pregnancy “for” Induced “health departments.
Before dobbs, such reports had abortion procedures and medications. But after removing the federal rights of abortion, the clinics were closed in states with anti-abortion prohibitions. More patients began to enter abortion medications through online organizations, including support access, that they are not falling into the laws of compulsory state notifications.
At least six states are called “hidden laws” to protect the suppliers that send pills to patients forbidden abortions. New York New York, where Linda Prince, a family doctor who works with support help give the abortion pills to the country’s patients.
In 2023 he was asked about states about zero or very many abortions, Printers surely said that these statistics were wrong. Texas, for example, reported 50,783 abortions in State in 2021. Now the state has been reported in an average of five months. Wecount had a new 2,800 telehealth news in Texas from April 2024 to June.
“In 2023, support support fully access pills – South Dakota, Arkansas and Texas,” Printers said.
The General Ken Paxton of Texas, who presented a doctor in New York against a doctor New York, the founder of the telemedicine abortion coalition, the banseance of Texas abortion for Texas patients. The first legal challenge of New York’s coat of arms is to derave access to aborting medications.
However, some officials in the states in the States of Abortions want to drown the supply of medicines that induce abortion. In May, the Arkansas lawyer interrupted by Tim Griffin and dissolved the letters Access to support In the Netherlands and Options for women’s medical center In New York City, the medical organizations that achieve “abortion pills are not legally” sent to Arkansas “and” false trade practices, deceptive and encompassive “.
The regular main reasons team says that statistical deception is a decision of civil trust as well as public confidence legislation.
These concerns have increased through health care disinformation, including vaccination control and voice voice movement and objections of some conservative politicians related to Covid-19, including masks, physical distance and school and business closure.
“If the state does not put a little more than naked, to know whether their data is accurate,” Mehta said, “We are in a very dangerous place.”
