S kolegyněmi v rámci projektu @institutSYRI jsme vyčíslily modelovou hodnotu úhrnné plodnosti v roce 2022 za předpoladu, že se ženy rozhodly vyhnout početí v měsíci vakcinace. Poukazujeme tak na skutečnost, že úhrnná plodnost jako ukazatel je citlivý na změny ve jmenovateli.
Could Covid-19 vaccination have affected fertility in Czechia? New paper by @sljitka & colleagues shows how changes in the TFR denominator might help explain the fertility decline in 2021–2022. 🔗 genus.springeropen.com/artic…

Yesterday I had the pleasure of presenting my poster. Comparing marital fertility in the Czechia before the first demographic transition and now. You can see that the timing of first marriage and first childbirth is similar in these populations!

Couples experienced massive worsening of union quality during COVID. @martin_kreidl and Barbora Hubatková use @GGP_i & @GGP_cz data and show that the share of people thinking of leaving their partner rose to 28 % between May and Dec. 2021 in Czechia. demographic-research.org/art…
