Micaiah Bilger – April 14, 2022<\/p>\n

A startling new report estimates the world now is killing 73 million unborn babies in abortions every year.<\/p>\n

The number from the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute, United Nations and World Health Organization is much higher than other recent estimates. One figure, which LifeNews.com reported about earlier this year,\u00a0put the number of abortions world-wide at 42.6 million in 2021<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Live Action News reports<\/a>\u00a0the Guttmacher study came to the 73 million estimate by looking at abortion data from more than 100 countries between 2015 and 2019. In those five years, the researchers believe a horrific 365 million abortions took place across the world.<\/p>\n

According to the study, 61 percent of women facing unintended pregnancies had abortions, an 18-percent increase compared to abortions in the 1990s.<\/p>\n

However, the study also suggests pro-life laws do save babies\u2019 lives.<\/p>\n

Guttmacher researcher Jonathan Bearak found that 70 percent of women with unintended pregnancies have abortions in countries where abortion is \u201cbroadly legal,\u201d compared to 50 percent in countries where abortions are restricted or banned, according to Live Action.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis study adds to the body of data which shows that an important reason behind the long-term decline in the U.S. abortion rate is because a higher percentage of unintended pregnancies are being carried to term,\u201d Dr. Michael New, a research associate at the pro-life Charlotte Lozier Institute, told Live Action News.<\/p>\n
