--1 in 8 women who visit PP end up getting an abortion (from the video).
--Abortion procedures themselves - not funded by government - make up 3% of all service line items registered by PP annually (from PP & independent audit).
--There were 323,999 abortions performed by PP in 2016, which is about 1⁄2 of the abortions performed in the U.S. and the lowest number since Roe v Wade was decided (from CDC, PP & independent audit).
--91.4% of abortions were performed at or less than the 13th week of gestation; of those 65.8% were performed at or less than the eighth week and the number of abortions and percentage of abortions per 1,000 women have been declining significantly since 1995 in the U.S. (per CDC annual reports).
^All accurate. And, of course, the opposing camps will each use the statistics and surrounding narrative/rhetoric which best serves their cause; nothing new. As long as the statistics chosen are accurate, I like viewing them all.
