The decrease in births in 2022 in the UK
The photo above came from the twitter link posted. The data all comes from this link here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1139990/vaccine-surveillance-report-2023-week-9.pdf
What we do not have to compare here is the 2020 data in table form. However, based on the article above, they never compared birth rate data, they were looking at the number of women who gave birth based on vaccinated or unvaccinated at time of delivery, and how many of them went on to get a vaccine after delivery if they had not had one during pregnancy.
Birth rates in 2022 are significantly lower than 2021. On average, births were 12% lower in 2022 than in 2021. It would be nice to have the 2020 data of births to compare, but this article is all about singing the praises of the vaccine and focused solely on the vaccine status of these moms. While that was their focus, they missed the true safety signal which was a significant decrease in births period!
Now we wait to compare 2023 with these two years of data. Births have been below 40k the entirety of 2022.
I agree on the 2020 stats...could they have pushed the 2021 higher because of the lockdowns? You know people with nothing much else to do? 😉
Do you have figures for UK marriages? Of course lots of babies are born out of wedlock.
In Australia lots of couples were denied marriage plans due to lockdown and/or loss of income because they were sacked for refusing the jab.
