In groundbreaking research presented Wednesday, statistician and Luzern University professor Dr. Konstantin Beck said data show miscarriages and stillbirth rates in 2022 corresponded directly to COVID-19 vaccination among pregnant women in Switzerland nine months earlier — and vaccine makers and public health officials either knew or could have known this information at the time.

women were becoming pregnant at the same rates as before the pandemic.

Using German health insurance data — because Swiss data are not yet available — he showed the number of women seeking pregnancy tests and visiting doctors to be treated for pregnancy remained constant throughout 2021 and 2022.

There was even slight ongoing growth, and a spike related to the mini-baby boom of 2021.

That makes COVID-19 vaccine-induced spontaneous abortion the most plausible hypothesis for the drop in birth rates — because the same number of women were becoming pregnant, but fewer of them were carrying their pregnancies to term.

Supporting that claim, data from German health and Swiss insurers show that beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, there are clear and significant increases in the number of pregnancy complications treated and in the length of hospital stays following birth — both of which had been trending downward for years.

German data also indicate that the number of stillbirths was up 20% in the fourth quarter of 2021.

    My wife was pressured to get the shot early on in her pregnancy, and she refused. Of course we took all the measures to make sure she didn’t get sick during pregnancy, but in the end I’m so thankful she went that way. Our son has transformed our lives, we didn’t want to take a risk on an untested experimental drug.

    Expecting mothers can’t use hardly any routinely prescribed drugs. Most of them aren’t approved for use on pregnant women and cannot be approved for use on pregnant women because testing drugs that might harm a fetus isn’t ethical.

    Anyone saying they knew it was safe and had tested it thoroughly in this instance is clearly wrong. It takes 9 months to make a baby, and it takes a long term to complete long term testing. Put it together, and corners were definitely cut.

    America doesn’t have a universal healthcare system for people, but it has a long-standing public healthcare system for corporations, and I’m certain that the corners that were cut (that I should remind everyone they aren’t liable for in the least thanks to the laws around it) helped the quarterly reports of the drug companies greatly, thank goodness! Could you imagine if the multinational drug companies had some trouble because of the global pandemic? What would our society even look like!
