The number of deaths that would be caused by dangerous abortions is far lower than the number of abortions that would be prevented.
I suspect that that is true, although I would not be surprised if it wasn't "far" lower; I would expect more than 5 but less than 100 abortions stopped per complication from a dangerous abortion. I don't have any figures to back that up though. I'd be interested to see if anyone has done any work on the subject.
