I used to feel this was a tragedy. Now I feel that those parents aren’t intelligent enough to have children. They deserve what they got. The child died but it was probably going to of something else stupid at some point anyway. A century ago, before we had all the modern medical procedures, a large percentage of children didn’t make it to adulthood. That is going to be the new norm for the parents who know better than “the elites”.
Be careful. “Stupid people shouldn’t procreate” sounds like a good idea until the state deems you too stupid to deserve life. That’s eugenics. And it never stops with the people you think deserve it.

Its not eugenics it’s just a reversion to natural pressures. Eugenics would imply that there is an artificial pressure causing the deaths.
The fact is most of us would likely not be here if not for modern medicine.
