In another story that should have experts asking questions, it appears that things are amiss down under when it comes to fertility, as Australian fertility rates went info freefall at the end of 2021.

Like clockwork, since 2011, monthly birthrates down under have consistently ranged between 23,000 and 28,000 live births every month, never missing a beat. However, something odd began in October of last year. In that month, Aussie births fell below the recent historical low point, scraping the bottom at around 23,000. Which may not seem like much but still a drop of almost 10%, is concerning.

This was followed up in November, with an even larger drop as November 2021 posted only 18,186, an amount well below the historic range during 2011-2021. This represented a drop of another 21% under the previous recent record low set in October of the previous month.

Now for those of us, unlike Bill Gates who views the world as overpopulated and a scourge on the planet, the loss of thousands and thousands of Australians that should have been, but will never be, is tragic, alarming and something you would think the Australian government would want to get to the bottom of.

Even if it wasn’t, surely the December 2021 figures that followed would enough to grab their attention as they got progressively worse.

The December 2021 figures recently released tallied in at an anemic 6,659, which at first glance would have been thought to be a mistake, I mean, there’s no way they could be right. Sadly, though they are, the December report was literally one quarter (25%) of the average monthly births during the last ten years, a figure that is far below anything ever recorded. Simply put 75% less children were born in the month of December.

Given our “data manipulation” culture where data is weaponized to support a narrative, I’m sure someone would accuse me of “cherry picking” the data by only going back to 2011. Surely the numbers must have been similar prior to that, well I found the official Australian records going back to 1975, which I’ve put a link for in the notes below.

Given the seriousness of this story and what it could potentially be pointing to, which I’m sure you’re tracking with me on, there would be folks out there who would want to dismiss this as a “non-story!” One such individual is Glenn the Census Expert, he along with corporate media would have you believe the government narrative of nothing to see here! How did Glenn do this, well he employed the fact that “in ever lie there is a kernel of truth.”

On November 3rd on his blog, he published the headline “Australia’s birth rate increases for the first time in 10 years.” Now the law of contradiction would tell us both things can’t be true, in other words, you cannot have the highest birth rate in 10 years and the sharpest declines, you’re right so let’s take a look at how Glen did the impossible.
For openers I’ll concede that that Glen’s right in that 2021 had a little baby boom in the first quarter, could be due to a prolonged period of Aussie lockdowns, with nothing else to do. So, when you add up all the births for 2021, it comes to slightly (5%) more than the 10-year average. But Glenn omitted from his post what happened during the last three months of 2021, the precipitous drop!

He especially ignored the fact that December 2021 posted the lowest births for any month since tracking began in 1975. Now if it was a marginal difference, but folks it’s not even close. The next lowest month after December 2021 that you’ll find is November 1978 which came in at 17,742 births. Since 1975, there’s NEVER been a month under 10,000. Never and that’s even with a smaller overall Australian population. Now if I was a census expert, I would think this little fact would make me curious, no?

Yes, I can read your mind, some of you, who’re more inquisitive than Glenn are thinking, could this have anything to do with the recent introduction of pharmaceutical interventions, interventions that 72% of all Australian citizens of all ages have received at least three doses of.
I don’t know, but whatever it is, I’m sure Australians mothers would like to know!

The million-dollar question of course is, did this troubling trend continue? Or did births recover in 2022 and this short period was an outlier?

The future survival of a nation may very well depend on the answer to that question.

Once again take a look at the numbers yourself and by all means tell me if I’ve arrived at an incorrect conclusion.
