This alarming trend has far-reaching implications for human health and reproduction, raising questions about the future of fertility and the potential consequences for individuals, families, and society as a whole.

Oh I love you all so much. I read the title, saw 33 comments and my first thought was "shit, someone's probably being weird in the comments, talking about how actually, for real, this is an important problem (it isn't)". Then I get in here and it's all jokes, except for one possible debunking of the article.

Thanks for brightening my day by not buying into "muh birthrates!!1!!!" nonsense!
