I'm sort of surprised at some of the info in this piece -- I had been under the impression that the Guttmacher Institute, despite its associations, was generally acknowledged to produce reliable data.
Dr. Keith Schumann, a Ph.D. statistician from College Station, Texas, examined the research reported in the study and found several problems behind the numbers that Guttmacher and the WHO released. ... Some of the more telling numbers reported by the Guttmacher Institute included a 100% “safe abortion” rate for parts of Asia that include China and North Korea. Therefore, even forced abortions, by the totalitarian governments of these Communist countries, fall under the definition of “safe abortions”.
That might depend on your definition of "safe"... but how did they get any kind of reliable information about North Korea?
