The Pandemic Is Dumbing Down Babies



by Dr.Harald Wiesendanger– Klartext

A new US study is sounding the alarm: Children born during the corona crisis have a significantly lower intelligence quotient than those born earlier. Is the Wuhan virus also raging in the brains of our youngest? The researchers point to a bundle of harmful factors that hyperactive infection control has evoked..

A team of psychologists from Brown University in Providence, led by Sean Deoni, an associate professor of pediatrics, studied the cognitive performance of 672 children born in Rhode Island, the smallest state in the United States, on the northern Atlantic coast of the United States. 188 of them were born after July 2020, 308 before January 2019, 176 between January 2019 and March 2020. All were healthy and free of disabilities.

In the decade before 2020, the mean IQ value that children between three months and three years of age achieved in standardized tests of linguistic, non-verbal, and other mental abilities was around 100. The IQs of the “pre-pandemic” babies, initially called Study published in Preprint, included: The measured values ranged between 98.5 and 107.3. The “Corona children,” on the other hand, achieved a much lower mean score: their IQ fell by 27 to 37 points.

This deviation “is by no means inconspicuous,” explains Deoni. “There is usually no such thing outside of the most important cognitive disorders.”

According to the authors of the Study, “the brain of infants is born with an immense ability to learn, restructure and adapt. However, it is highly sensitive and prone to neglect and environmental pollution, some of which begin before birth. “

Has the virus possibly ravaged the little one’s brain? The study authors reject this speculation: “Neither the pregnant women included nor their children showed symptoms of a SARS-CoV-2 infection, neither had a positive antibody or RT-PCR test. The families also reported that they had stayed at home, had constantly masked themselves, and distanced themselves socially. This indicates that the observed effects are more likely to be attributed to the environment than to possible direct effects of the infection. “As the German” Research Gap “study found in July 2020, the introduction of the mask requirement had” serious psychological consequences.” This finding affected all generations – how serious was the evidence-remote, politically motivated mummery tail only for infants and toddlers?

The Corona children were likely to have had a particularly stressful effect that they had to spend a lot of time indoors in lockdowns with stressed, overwhelmed, worn-out parents. Essentially cut off from usual social contacts, essential stimuli for cognitive progress were missing in increased isolation. Dissatisfied, irritable mothers and fathers also offer less attention and loving, intensive care. “The interaction the child would normally have has decreased significantly,” says Deoni. There was a lack of positive stimulation.

If a mother wears a mask all the time, she takes in less oxygen but instead uses rebreathed carbon dioxide (1). Depending on the type of mask, she also inhales polypropylene, adhesives, binders, UV stabilizers, volatile organic hydrocarbons, formaldehyde, aniline, artificial fragrances, cobalt, microfiber particles, germs that have hatched in the warm, humid environment of the mask. Can it be ruled out that all of this could have harmed your offspring prenatally?

One cannot imagine what pronounced intellectual disability would have come to light in the Rhode Island study if extremists from the “Zero Covid” camp had prevailed: To reduce infection rates to zero, some so-called experts strongly recommended in all seriousness to mask even infants and toddlers – an age group whose statistical corona risk disappears without pre-existing severe illnesses in the nano range. A comprehensive analysis of data from Great Britain published in July shows that the death rate among healthy children there is 2 in a million, the equivalent of 0.0002%. In the first year of the pandemic, 12.023 million minors contributed 25 cases to the UK’s death statistics; 19 had “chronic comorbidities” and/or “life-limiting” medical conditions. “I knew the chances were microscopic, but not that they were that microscopic,” commented a journalist for the online magazine UndercoverDC. “If the death rate were expressed with three decimal places instead of four, it would be 0.000.” The Infection Fatality Rate (IFR) among British minors is 0.005%. Only 5 in 100,000 died “of or with” SARS-CoV-2 .62 between March 2020 and February 2021 – including just two who were younger than five years old.

In the first months of life, interaction with the mother plays a key role in developmental psychology: nothing observes a newborn more attentively than its face. By the third month, it responds with an answering smile. If the primary caregiver covers their face, the facial expressions largely disappear – expressions of joy, surprise, worry, shock, and dozens of other sensations and emotions that a child learns to read from the most subtle movements of the 41 facial muscles. A rag over the lower half of the face “eliminates non-verbal cues, muffles utterances,” says Deoni, and sabotages mutual communication. Perceptions of how mouth movements interact with sounds are extremely important for a baby’s linguistic development.

The Study does not rule out that the identified mental deficits can only be made up temporarily and over time once society returns to normal. (The scientists do not want to predict whether and when this will happen.) However, the older the child and the longer the emergency regime lasts, the more difficult it becomes to make up for cognitive deficits. Because “the first years of life are decisive.”

Of course, cynics also gain positive aspects from the shocking finding: the lower the IQ, the sooner one can cope with a great reset and a new normal, they point out. Moreover, they criticize the fact that the Study has criminally excluded the recent intelligence development of adults – the results of opinion polls on the Corona issue and the recently preferred social behavior have been fearing the worst since spring 2020.
