Total transfers (all egg sources, the CDC's denominator): 2020: 508 · 2021: 741 · 2022: 849

Volume estimate = the CDC's reported all-ages share of transfers that used a gestational carrier × the program's total transfers (the transfer count the CDC uses as that share's denominator). Where the CDC suppressed the all-ages share, the age-group shares are used instead and the tile says so.
