Abstract
Roe versus Wade occurred in 1973 and was a landmark case in the United States. It guaranteed the right to abortion until 2022, when the Dobbs versus Jackson case was decided and the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe. This abolished the right to abortion and left it up to the states. The Dobbs decision has reshaped the framework for reproductive rights in the United States. This paper focuses on the multifaceted outcomes of the Dobbs decision, highlighting the legal, social and health implications. Through a study of recent research, legal analyses, and public health reports, this article assesses the broader aspects of the decision.
