Sixty-six health clinics across 15 states have stopped offering abortion services in the 100 days since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, ending nationwide access to the procedure.

“When clinics close down or stop offering abortion care, it represents a lost source of health care for their community," said Rachel Jones, a principal research scientist at the Guttmacher Institute."More so, the loss of clinics is felt in all states — even those where abortion remains legal. Abortion clinics in these states are being inundated with people from states with abortion bans seeking care.

The pro-abortion rights research organization examined 15 conservative states — Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia, and Wisconsin — and how their reproductive clinics changed their services afterBefore the Supreme Court handed down its decision, the 15 states had a total of 79 clinics that offered abortion services, according to the study.

Because of the closures, roughly 22 million people across the 15 states, or one-third of all women in the country, now live in areas where abortion is inaccessible, according to the report.
