>>3958413The huge baby boom the USSR experienced in the 1960s and 1970s was entirely due to the fact that they finally introduced """modern""" medicine that reduced child mortality rate from ~40% (Reported as 11% by the official stats but we all know that no communist regime has ever reported anything truthfully. And even then, 11% is already insanely high by 1950s standards - in the US it was 3.2% for comparison) to ~10-15% (Reported as 3% by the official stats) but people were still pumping out 6-7 babies per family out of habit because they weren't used to half of their kids NOT dying before they reach adulthood.
