Almost 300,000 people died during pregnancy or childbirth in 2020. That includes the US, where maternal death rates are up. But India’s MMR is down.

Going to be interesting to see what the US’s post-Roe MMR is over time. I’m suspecting it is going to be trending up due to red states banning even medically necessary abortions for the safety of the mother. Plus the falling availability of OB/GYNs in red states as they leave to avoid possible litigation or jail time.
