False. The source is Breitbart citing Worldometer. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2025/01/01/abortion-was-leading-global-cause-of-death-in-2024-with-over-45-million-killed/ Worldometer claims its data is from “the latest estimates” then it cites a WHO number derived from a 2020 study using 2015–19 data that doesn't mention “45 million” of anything. The claim is unsupported by the source. https://www.worldometers.info/abortions/ https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/abortion https://www.thelancet.com/journals/langlo/article/PIIS2214-109X(20)30315-6/fulltext#:~:text=In%202015%E2%80%9319%2C%20there%20were%2073%C2%B73%20million

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1874542367631708434

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
