Asking in general for the country and not specific to any one group.

If the answer is yes, the next question would be “is this a good thing?”. I guess the freakanomics approach might not be the popular one here.

Will covid-19 be the reason for the next baby boom?

If yes, it goes to show how little we understand about the virus. COVID causes women to get pregnant?

I think you took the question the wrong way.

Oh goodness. People with kids at home are going out of their mind and are not having babies. Hence only childless couples who haven't experienced kids at home during corona, will be the only ones having kids.

Joke officially demolished.

The answer will also depend on whether this virus causes fertility issues...

  • Location: As always, silence is NOT an admission of agreement on DDF. It just means that people lack the stamina to keep on arguing with made up "facts", illogical arguments, deceiving statements, nasty and degrading comments, and fuzzy math. - @yelped

You're not quarantined with little kids. People are taking birth control very seriously now...

Common sense is not a gift, it is a punishment.
Because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

Taking birth control very serious would mean the joke makes no sense.
Being quarantined with little kids makes it easier not harder. They do go to sleep.  ;)
