SWEDEN: Birth rate (blue) compared to vax uptake (red)

the swedish vaccine uptake data (% fully vaxxed) and shifted in 9 months right so that prospective cause stacks vertically above effect.

it’s really pretty jarring once you see it like that, no?

(especially once you factor in that the first 5% of uptake was almost all non-childbearing age folks.)

in a data series like this, you’re just not going to see much tighter alignment than that.
