Revision as of 05:47, April 16, 2010

Abortion in Poland has declined from a peak of about 260,000 under communist rule in 1963 to only 328 in 2007, a decline of nearly 99.9%.[1]

From 1987 to 1993 the number of abortions in Poland decreased by 99% as the communist rule was overthrown.

The result has been a dramatic improvement in women's health and a spectacular decrease in harmful premature births. Here are the data for deaths of Polish children under age 5 with Cerebral Palsy (CP):[2]
