In the 1960s, >200 women died each year as a result of botched illegal abortions.
That 200 a year is a VERY low estimate. That’s how many had botched abortion as cause of death on their official paperwork.
But the number of women of reproductive age who died from “hemorrhage” or from unspecified “infection”… is significantly more.
