"Unsafe Abortion"
Wikpedia

Excerpt: The World Health Organization reports that in developed regions, nearly all abortions (92%) are safe, whereas in developing countries, more than half (55%) are unsafe. 

According to WHO statistics, the risk rate for unsafe abortion is 1/270; according to other sources, unsafe abortion is responsible for one in eight maternal deaths.[12] 

Worldwide, 48% of all induced abortions are unsafe.

The British Medical Bulletin reported in 2003 that 70,000 women a year die from unsafe abortion.[13] 

Incidence of such abortions may be difficult to measure because they can be reported variously as miscarriage, "induced miscarriage", "menstrual regulation" ... and "regulation of a delayed/suspended menstruation".[14][15]
Alan: I pay close attention to abortion and abortion statistics.

When Roe v. Wade legalized abortion in 1973, the U.S. abortion rate was 16.3 per 1000 women of childbearing age.

Over the next seven years the abortion rate rose to its 1980 peak of 29.3 abortions per 1000.

Since 1980 the rate has fallen until the most recent comprehensive measurement in 2014 when the rate was 14.6 abortions per 1000 women. 

Since 2014, the abortion rate trendline has continued to go down.
U.S. Abortion Rate Falls To Lowest Level Since Roe v. Wade

Excerpt: "In Russia, the abortion rate is vastly higher, per capita, than other European countries or the United States. Russia has a ratio of around 480 abortions per 1,000 live births, for example, while the United States has around 200; the most recent available statistics from Germany, from 2015, show 135 abortions per 1,000 births." Although the U.S. abortioon rate has fallen disproportionately due to widening use of contraception, it is also true that three behaviors in concert -- 1.) legal abortion, 2.) affordable, shame-free contraception, and 3.) quality sex education -- comprise a cultural matrix that has accompanied the decline in abortion rates across the northern latitudes - with the exception of Russia where abortion rathes are almost two and half times greater than in the United States. https://foreignpolicy.com/2017/10/03/putins-next-target-is-russias-abortion-culture/
