Nearly 65,000 pregnancies from rape have occurred in states with abortion bans, study estimates

In the study, published Wednesday in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine, researchers from Planned Parenthood, Resound Research for Reproductive Health and academic institutions across the US used a combination of federal surveys on crime and sexual violence to estimate that there were about 520,000 rapes that led to 64,565 pregnancies in the time since abortion bans have been enacted in 14 states – ranging by state from four to 18 months ago. https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/24/health/rape-pregnancy-abortion/index.html
