According to new research, more infants are dying since the overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022. “This is evidence of a national ripple effect, regardless of state-level status,” Dr. Parvati Singh, the lead author of a new study published on Monday by the Journal of the American Medical Association, said in an interview with CNN.⁠ ⁠ Singh and her co-author Dr. Maria Gallo’s 18-month-long study began after the Supreme Court Dobbs decision revoking a woman’s federal right to an abortion. CNN also reported that births have increased in states with abortion bans. Experts believe it’s linked to a disproportionate rise in how many women are forced to carry fetuses with lethal congenital anomalies to term.⁠ ⁠ Swipe and hit the link in our bio to learn more about this study.
