A young audience watches the topical wartime Punch and Judy puppet show of ‘ professor ‘ Tom Haffenden in August 1941 in London, United Kingdom. Original Publication: Picture Post 837 – What Are All These Children Laughing At? – published 23rd August 1941 (Photo by Bill Brandt/Picture Post/Hulton Archive/Getty Images) Despite Britons largely being confined to their homes, pregnancies fell to a 17-year low during the first year of Chinese coronavirus lockdowns.
According to figures compiled by Britain’s Office of National Statistics (ONS), there were 817,515 conceptions recorded among women between the ages of 15 and 44 in 2020.
The figures for the first year of lockdown restrictions in the UK reflect the lowest number of pregnancies logged since 2003, despite predictions of a baby boom due to couples being forced to stay inside by the government for much of the year.
Yet, 2020 continued the overall trend of falling pregnancies, which have decline every year since 2015 when 876,934 conceptions were recorded.
The ONS noted, however, that there has been an increase in older women becoming pregnant, with a record high of 17.1 out of every 1,000 women in their 40s experiencing a pregnancy in 2020.
Women between the age of 30 and 34 represented the highest number of conceptions for the fourth consecutive year, with a record high of 248,528 conceptions in 2020. Conversely the pregnancy rate for those under the age of 18 fell by 17 per cent.
The first year of lockdown also saw the percentage of conceptions leading to legal abortions increase for the sixth year in a row, with 25.3 per cent of conceptions leading to abortions in 2020.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
