From the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology:
“There has been no major impact on the number of women dying from abortion in the US… After all, it really makes no difference whether a woman dies from legal or illegal abortion, she is dead nonetheless. I find no comfort in the fact that legal abortion is now the leading cause of abortion related maternal deaths in the US.”
Dr. Dennis Cavanaugh “Effect of Liberalized Abortion on Maternal Mortality Rates” American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology (February 1978) 375
Many times, abortionists who operated illegally before Roe Vs Wade simply began operating legally after it, moving from the back alley to the “front alley.” There have been abortionists who killed women before Roe and then went on to kill women after Roe. Read about some of them in the “Providers Hall of Shame” section.
