"Large decreases in the total number, rate, and ratio of reported abortions from 2010 to 2011, in combination with decreases that occurred during 2008-2010, resulted in historic lows for all three measures of abortion," the report noted.

As reported in Life News, the report indicates that at its high decades ago, "approximately 1 in 3 pregnancies ended in abortion—resulting in brochures, banners and billboards proclaiming that fact and greying out every third baby displayed in pictures of newborn children. Thanks to pro-life laws, educational efforts, pregnancy centers and the actions of pro-life groups that have resulted in closing down abortion clinics, now just 18 percent of pregnancies in the United States end in abortion."

The Life News report also revealed that the CDC report showed 10 women died in 2011 as a result of legal abortions "which are not safer for women simply because they are legal."
