Shortly after Roe’s fall, abortion is outlawed in 11 states, Most of them were in the South and Midwest: Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Texas. While other states prefer ban after six weeks of pregnancy (Georgia, Ohio, South Carolina and Tennessee).

And at least a month after this decision 43 clinics in North American countries They stopped having abortions, according to a study by the Guttmacher Institute.

Before the abolition of the right, the total 71 centers offering abortion In those eleven states and 30 days later, there are only 28 clinics offering abortion as a possibility, all located in four states that limit the ban to six weeks of pregnancy. 43 less in a month.

However, in states where this is limited to six weeks of pregnancy, it’s a change that may be insignificant as many people don’t know about their pregnancy. even after two months (eight weeks), that is, of the eleven states where it is prohibited, these four in practice are added which assume this limitation.
