Well done. Paul's analyses on the face of it always seem persuasive but you always get left with the feeling that they are there to promote a specific narrative and once he meets that narrative stops looking.

One other factor to consider, which is relevant to a number of Western countries (most affected by the 2022-2023 drop in births) is that the younger age groups often have a higher representation of cultural groups who were more likely to reject the COVID mRNA vaccines and who are also the groups who have a higher pre-existing fertility rate than the native groups. This would be seen in the UK, Germany, Sweden, France and some parts of Australia for instance. It becomes a conflating factor in either direction but can be a reason that birth rates were propped up in some areas and didn't show as large a drop.

Conversely there is also a pull forward effect from the 2021 mini-boom. Families who were going to plan children brought their plans forward (due to lockdowns) and therefore in the absence of the same ongoing reason for the mini-boom (assuming it was lockdown) you would anticipate a drop in 2022. This might be seen as a vaccine-related effect but could just be the correction from 2021.

As we see, the data is very conflated and ideally it should be analysed by vaccination status to resolve the issue. That data I suspect will never be released.

Could it also be the HPV vaccines causing loss of pregnancy in the first 30 days as in the scandal shown here in NZ . These younger people have had a more focused blanket of vaccinations in general.

They are less aware have been programmed through the schools, by the pharma companies.

This is a WORLD WIDE POGROM. Kill the unborn.

These deceitful and fraudulent actions need explanations and those possibly injured deserve to be informed.

Thanks for your analysis! I've been watching the drop in the birth rate data from time to time and can't figure out if there is anything there.
