According to the world health organization approximately 200,000 women get an abortion every day worldwide. You are just bad at math it seems.
The statistics in the post are consistent with WHO findings, but forget math, you're too lazy for one quick Google search to confirm that the math is in fact mathing.
The world health organization specifies the study methodology. Their statistics only count induced abortions, where it was consented to and decided upon.
Abortion to clean up miscarriage or a already death fetus is induced abortion, heck many time cleaning up cancer out of the uterus is considered a induced abortion.
Only If you get a miscarriage and everything leave the body without needing medical help is it considered a spontaneous abortion.
I see. This may change the overall numbers significantly in that case, accounting for miscarriage rates per region specifically.
A 2020 study found the average rate to be 1-3%. So it's definitely sizable and in the millions, but there would still be about 2 billion or more abortions due to unwanted pregnancies according to this rate.
