Not the rate but the needlessness is the issue.

    The rate is the factual evidence that denying women healthcare creates real harm.

    A singular case of denied abortion leading to death is enough here. It is not about the statistic threat but the unnecessary death.

    That may be so, but the numbers are where you point to show how deficient the US healthcare system is towards pregnancy and mothers.

    That's not what the numbers show though. You need more numbers and context to do anything rigorous.

    How about both? You don't need to deny or dismiss any other valid supporting point in order to drive your point home. Every unnecessary death is wrong. An increase in unnecessary deaths is wrong. It's terrible en masse, and each one is completely unforgivable.
