Are abortion numbers rising in the US?

This More or Less podcast episode investigates the unexpected rise in US abortion numbers following the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Host Lizzy McNeill interviews data scientist Isaac Madozimit from the Guttmacher Institute and public health scientist Dr. Ushma Upadhyay of We Count. They discuss the data showing an increase in abortions, despite bans in several states, attributing the rise to increased telehealth abortions, individuals crossing state lines for procedures, and improved access to care in states where abortion remains legal. The experts highlight the limitations of government data and emphasize that many individuals in states with abortion bans still lack access to the procedure.
