A study with conclusions that are not supported by the underlying data is nevertheless due to the Peer Review and is published in New England Journal of Medicine. That should not be possible. If fundamental criticism subsequently comes, the article is still not withdrawn. I described it earlier1Legacy Science â„¢ and Pro-Vax Fraud: a horror example.
Jonah Walk cited that article in a lecture. A photo was distributed and of course that again led to a fuss, certainly because my name is my name and "virus varia".
The consternation on X was large (with a few). Wappie Walk quotes Wappie site Virusvaria was the tenor and Hahaha - Anton from Tyrol etc. etc. Sucking tweets, provocations, false accusations, nothing goes too far. It was not too bad in terms of quantity, but the poison behind it ... they have my condolences. There is still a lot of work to do.
Below the actual timeline so far. If you are not allowed to question very big question marks, I really don't know anymore.
Timeline V-Safe controversy (simplified)
2020–2021: Setup and rollout V-Safe
- Dec 2020: CDC launches it v-safe monitoring system To follow COVID-19Gaccins in real time via smartphone feedback.
- The system collects self -reported symptoms, pregnancies, pregnancy outcomes, etc.
June 2021: NEJM publication Shimabukuro et al.
- Study reports that there No increased risk of miscarriage Is with COVID vaccination during pregnancy. (June: two months after introduction of vaccines at 30/40 people, that was in US mid-April.)
- The main author is Dr. Tom shinoubtes, also Deputy director of the Immunization Safety Office of the CDC (CDC = American RIVM, falls under the HHS = the US Department of Health.)
- Criticism follows from several corners about methodology and premature conclusions.
- The percentage of miscarriages (12.6%) appears to be based on one Wrong composite denominator.
September 2021: Erratum published
- NEJM acknowledges that there were insufficient data to make a conclusive statement about miscarriages in early vaccination.
- The original conclusion remains formal. No retraction.
2021–2022: V-Safe data not public
- CDC refuses requests to release the entire data set.
- Refers to privacy, security and risk of "incorrect interpretation".
- Public worries are increasing: how can policy -making is transparent if the raw data remain secret?
2022–2023: Legal by Ican
- The Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) organization delves the CDC to court.
- CDC loses, and must release part of the V-SAFE data (144 million entries).
- After release The data is not usable for the intended goal: The data is (just like WOO supplies in the Netherlands) aggregated, cut, and without relevant time series, dates or demographic coupling.
2023–2025: No complete transparency
- To date is the full V-Safe data set, including pregnancy results, not released.
- Follow -up studies use internal data, without public replication.
- Independent analysis remains impossible.
2025: suspicion that documents have been removed
- Senator Ron Johnson demands internal e-mails from Shimabukuro and other CDC/HHS officials2Senator Johnson calls on DOJ, FBI, HHS, OIG to investigate alleged mishandling of HHS official records.
- HHS reports that some e-mails "are missing" or "may have been deleted".
- Although there is no direct evidence that these emails related to the NEJM study, the combination of person, timing and sensitivity Questions about transparency.
Current status (June 2025)
- V-Safe still remains not fully accessible For independent analysis.
- From NEJM study has not been withdrawn, despite recognized methodological errors.
- Trust in vaccine security monitoring during pregnancy is affected, but never recovered publicly.
Comments
In the timeline above we have seen that the underlying data is not released. Not again. According to scientific standards, that is a confession. In science themselves they do not realize that because everyone is busy there and with the best of intentions ... but it is now so appropriate and common that this conclusion should be made. It simply stems from the guidelines for scientific integrity. Where those deliberately are knowingly and knowingly violated, there must be culpable crowns. Those involved are complicit in what went wrong. Very unfortunate that it should come to that.
I am asked on X what Jonah Walk illustrated with this slide (as if I know that). And what my position is (as if that matters a lot). Read the article in question, I would say.
But I still watched it again. And fall back in a rabbit hole.
In three months they wanted to demonstrate the safety of vaccination for pregnant women. But a pregnancy lasts 9 months, three trimesters of three months. A reassuring message had to come quickly after all the alarming messages about mrna in the ovaries, menstrual cycles disturbed and so on. And it had to be ready before the disease were to be exhausted whether mutations would catch up with the vaccines.
They solved that by following three groups of pregnant women: women who are punctured in their 1st trimester, women who are punctured in their second trimester and thus also for the third trimester. If you follow it all for a few months, then you have the entire period?
This setup can hardly go well. A few examples, without falling into statistical weight.
It starts with the fact that only the women who were punctured when it was punctured could bring it to a normal birth within the set time frame. That must be done within three months after the injection and earlier than pricked (and pregnant) you will not enter the examination. More importantly, those third-day women have not had any miscarriage the first two installments. That means that in the analysis they also have no chance to get a miscarriage there. Wow: the vaccines work Top! So you have to think very carefully about how you will reconcile it. All the more so since around 50% of all miscarriages fall in the first term.
Another example: something similar happens within the trimesters. Women who were punctured during the first trimester will also be punctured in the middle of their trimester on average. That means that within the research they actually only run half a trimester risk on a miscarriage. That is automatically the second half. While the greatest risk is at the start of the trimester: twice as much as at the end of the trimester.
Such a study stands or falls with the accountability of how that has been calculated. It is not in it. While it is a well -known pitfall3Immortal Time Bias: https://www.mdpi.com/2076-2607/12/7/1343.
An example, easy to understand: we take the pregnant women who were vaccinated in their first trimester. From this group we look at Ho many women before the end of the period of pregnancy (early). That then results in say 10.6% miscarriages.
Now 10.6% in line with the normal (background) incidence of miscarriages in the first trimester (which also has enormous and age -related uncertainty margins). 10.6% can even be called low. But not everyone has completed a very trimester vaccinated, because they have all been vaccinated "somewhere in the first trimester". So less vaccinated time has been spent in the first trimester, not the full three months. Some will have gone through almost the entire trimester, others may have only 1 day. It is obvious to start from a scenario in which they have spent an average of half the time vaccinated.
That scenario would mean a doubling of the miscarriage percentage: 21.2%. Then it will be a red flag, if it is for all ages. But without raw data it will continue to speculate. And no action is taken on speculations. That could be at the expense of the vaccination willingness.
If you also take that 84% of all participating women were vaccinated in the third trimester ... Try to make soup again.
How does the study ultimately calculate the miscarriage percentage?
That is completely beautiful. In Table 4 is reported:
- 104 miscarriages (“spontaneous abortionsâ€)
- 827 completed pregnancies known at the time of analysis
→ of these 827 are 104 miscarriage and the rest (723) born alive, stillborn (which is therefore not included in this safety study - it was only 1), enz.
From that they calculate the percentage:
104 / 827 = 12,6% Spontaneous abortion (miscarriage)
The authors note that this is in line with what you normal Expected (often 10–26% in the literature, depending on the age category).
The births are exclusively from women who have only been vaccinated in the third trimester. The effect of the puncture on fetal development simply does not participate in this. The miscarriages come from all three trimesters - albeit from the second half of them. The first trimester women who were still pregnant in the end of the study may have had miscarriages later. They are also not included in the study. (When the researchers were pointed to this, some time later the answer came that they had imitated those women and it was right. There was no reason to revise the conclusions.)
This is a mix of Survivor Bias, Left Truncating, Right Truncating, Immortal Time Bias and Healthy Vaccinee Effect - that is no longer possible. Withdrawal seems to be the only option, but that doesn't happen. Because vaccination willingness.
Eventually the controversy gets stuck because people are calculating from different biases with incomplete, actually insufficient data and then it is about errors in that figure. It is actually an amateurish mess. The average blues band is better organized (I say from my own experience).
I cannot escape the impression that if this study had suggested something negative about the vaccines, he would not have passed the Peer Review. So he would not have been placed anyway and if he was unfortunate anyway, he would have been pulled back immediately in the first protests. (An organization like RetractionWatch is happy to play an active role in this4About the active role of RW: https://virusvaria.nl/de-inquisitie-van-retractionwatch/ ).
In the meantime, no long -term large -scale studies have been done -in any case not completed) to pregnancies of vaccinates or vaccination of pregnant women, and by long -term we do not mean 3 months but at least from the puncture up to and including 1 year after the delivery and if possible even longer. Nothing is known about this subject. This group was excluded (!) From the trials by the manufacturers. There were never tests for pregnant women after the introduction of this new "platform" that manufactures genetically manipulative injections. But hey, the MRNA remained in the arm and disappeared very quickly again, even according to science cycle dijkgraaf that always explains it so clearly on TV, so nothing on the hand.
Fortunately, there are observational studies.
45% more miscarriages between 8 and 13 weeks (Israel)
The ink of the previous pararaaf was not yet dry or I saw research with Israeli data, carried out by Josh Guetzkow et al5Josh Guetzkow et al https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.06.18.25329352v1, including known names Tracy Beth Høeg,Joseph Fraiman and Retsef Levi, scientists who sometimes made an alarmist impression. (I think so, even though it was not always flawless.)
It is still a preprint and it is solidly put together. Following this study, the vaccines cause more miscarriages. They say we have to think of about "4% more." But he mentioned 9%as a background number. Then it is almost half more. With other calculations they came to "8 per 100 more." Then you are around 86% percent increase. Not to be confused with 86% of pregnancies, with which critical miscarriages seemed to be screening. John Campbell spoke with Guetzkow.
The bullet summary of the study is below in the folding out.
I noticed: “Almost half of the loss took place after week 25 - so late losses, including deadborns. â€
Mark on:
- That we saw earlier that half of the miscarriages in it first trimester fall. So much less in the second half. https://www.famme.nl/kans-op-een-miskraam-per-week-overzicht/
- Death births are not included in the CDC study, where they only look at miscarriages.
Correct summary by Chatgpt (after a total bullshit summary with positive results, watch out with AI!)
📄 title
Observed-to-Expected Fetal Losses Following mRNA COVID-19 Vaccination in Early Pregnancy
Josh Guetzkow et al., Israel, Maccabi Healthcare Services, MIT Sloan, UCSF, medRxiv 2025.06.18
🧪 Purpose of the research
Determining whether MRNA COVID-19 vaccination in pregnancy, especially in weeks 8–13, leads to a higher than expected number of pregnancy losses (including miscarriages, therapeutic abortions and deadborns).
📊 design and method
- Population: 226,395 pregnancies in Israel, 2016-2022.
- Data: Electronic patient file Maccabi Health Services.
- Analyse: Observed-to-expected (O/E) Analysis with historical reference cohorts (2016-2018).
- Comparison: Women vaccinated with Pfizer (dose 1 or 3) in week 8–13 or 14–27 vs. Expected loss percentages based on Individual risk profiles.
📈 Main findings
🔺 Increased losses in vaccination in weeks 8–13:
- Dose 1 (week 8–13):
+3.85 pregnancy losses per 100 pregnancies
(13 observed per 100 vs. 9 expected; 95% CI: 2.55–5.14) - Dose 3 (week 8–13):
+1.9 per 100 pregnancies
(95% CI: 0,39–3,42) - Almost half of the loss took place after week 25 - so late losses, including dead births.
🟢 No increased risk outside of weeks 8–13:
- Week 14–27 (Doses 1 & 3): lower than expected number of losses.
- Influenza vaccination (Week 8–27): considerably lower than expected number of losses → healthy vaccine bias.
âš ï¸ Analysis Van Bias (ITB, Survival Bias, Hve)
1. Immortal Time Bias
- No time-dependent exposure-based analysis
The study only compares absolute relationships of SAB (spontaneous abortion) under "included, completed pregnancies." This creates this Selection on survival to injection/registration and to complete pregnancy - classic immortal time bias.
2. Survivor Bias
- Minimized: Only women with fully monitored pregnancies from week 8.
- Vaccinations before week 8 impossible Due to possible selection bias.
âž¡ï¸ Bias works towards underestimation of risk (early losses excluded).
3. HVE (Healthy Vaccinee Effect)
- Demonstrated: Influenza vaccination (and COVID-19 from week 14) led to lower than expected Loss-Typical HVE signal.
- ➤ For vaccination in week 8–13, however, loss → HvE does not explain that.
âž¡ï¸ HvE can cover up the effect rather than reinforce.
🧠Conclusion of the authors
“The results provide evidence for a substantially higher-than-expected number of eventual fetal losses associated with COVID-19 vaccination during gestational weeks 8–13.â€
They emphasize:
- Need to prospective studies and Regulatory evaluation.
- Possible biological mechanisms (eg teratogenicity, thrombotic processes).
- Dosis-respons effect (More loss with 2 doses than with only booster).
30% fewer full -term pregnancies for vaccinates (Czech Republic)
In the Czech Republic they have their registers in order than with us. Manniche et al (w.o. Schmeling) have done an analysis there 6Manniche et al: Rates of successful conceptions according to COVID-19 vaccination status: Data from the Czech Republic In any case, which cuts wood in terms of observation: from 1.3 million pregnant women have been analyzed from the beginning of 2021 and the completion of the births, no corrections or interpretations, only raw data. The first months I kept outside the graph. The number of vaccinates is then so low that gigantic uncertainty margins arise. In the beginning, the births are also of women who were punctured at the last of their pregnancy so that is crooked anyway. After half a year there will be more line. The graph speaks for itself. Finally a graph in which the upper line is happier than the lower one. Higher is therefore more delivery per 1000 women.
From January 2022, between 30% and 35% fewer pregnancies with vaccinates are fairly constant than for unvaccinants. So those are the women (but also the men! Then nobody think of us!? MrNA in the testes, is that not doing?)
And of course we get the usual tune: correlation is not a causality. It can be a coincidence, lifestyle is not included, not ethnicity, age partly, lifestyle not! Allemaal waar maar 30% verschil poets je niet weg. And certainly if you bring the Healthy Vaccinee Effect: you would expect the vaccinates to do better! It seems that those vaccinated people are going to scratch their ears what they are doing wrong in their lifestyle. Oh no - suddenly I know: it was of course deferred care!
Of beings interested
The reproduction affects our survival. If you find that melodramatic sound, you should let it penetrate well. We are now already below the average of 2.3 child per couple in our culture. That is the number with which a society maintains itself. So we die out, and then we cannot use reproduction (and fertility) problems.
And then those injections continue to push and even impose - because otherwise ...
It is not surprising that the cover -up cover is being screwed more and more firmly. As far as presidency is concerned, Bergkamp-Gate does not follow up, and that is completely in line with expectations. Bergkamp had not thought of that plan either. It undoubtedly fits in with the NATO directives to stay far away from everything that smells somewhat like pathogenic viruses and the corresponding research to protection against it. The room is not about that; NATO was actually established to influence public health or thus threaten to know exactly what they are doing, the room does want to debate Bergkamp-Gate so that they can get rid of it for good after a vote and can leave their wrong behavior behind. Or do they still not realize what happened? Or is the state interest all that matters?

Fortunately we still have Ourworlddata
Great how you can bring some clarity through all those smokescreens.
Fortunately we also have fertility figures via OurworldData and they don't think they are lying.
After a revival in a few countries in the first Corona year (thanks to Lockdowns?), After vaccination, it plummets considerably compared to the Pre Corona for years.
The Czech Republic is doing remarkably bad. Israel also supplies in but shows remarkable as one of the few countries in terms of population still growth potential.
And remarkably only the little -pricked Bulgaria is doing well. Belgium also dives down.
See OurWorldInData
Again a case of
Observation: none
Conclusion: the vaccine is safe
This is a fallacy that falls under Carl Sagan’s Venusian Dinosaur Fallacy (see: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=w_N_IYi2c0E&pp=ygUWRGlub3NhdXIgZmFsbGFjeSBzYWdhbg%3D%3D)
Or even worse.
Observation: the surface of the planet Venus is as hot as an oven
Conclusion: dinosaurs live on Venus
Fertility is of course slightly different than broken vs completed pregnancies. But New Zealand remains nicely stable and there has also been substantial vaccinated.
(I have corrected the link in your comment. See This explanation)
You can also use the "embed" share option on Owid:
Births in New Zealand even seem to be slightly opposed to the trend.
Population pyramid shows that just in these years there is also a peak in terms of fertile women.
The Maori who, I believe, also form a fifth of the population relatively more children than the rest of the population. Despite all kinds of promotion campaigns (would be more vulnerable to COVID?, Less VIT D production?), They also had considerably less (bit of Bulgarian figures) vaccinated.
(Thanks to sources via Chatgpt with question: are Maori women of fertile age less vaccinated for Covid than the rest of New Zealand population?).
This could partly be an explanation for the positive NZ figures.
Australia just seems to follow the trend (with a dip 2020) but not to bend negatively. Also requires further investigation.
I think I am important to look and compare as detailed as possible. A job and a lot harder than: they are just "safe and effective" she see, see the real -time data.
I am a supporter of simple and I believe I have discovered a trend.
If there is data somewhere supportive for the BS that is sold in the media well then it will come in cool chocolate letters for days on everything they can say it.
If that is not the case, they first come up with a list to color the data.
If that does not work because there are sharp spirits such as Maurice de Hond or Ronald Meester not to leave it very much, then the second attempt comes. With the end of the goal of making people believe that they did well. Because people are happy to be happy in any fairy tale.
Overigens is het jammer dat we dat experimentele gevaarlijk spul vaccins blijven noemen.
Realize that in the previous thread- in which I stated that doctors who cannot see that you can get VAXX thrombosis, and therefore all women used the pill+Gevaxx'd explained as: thrombosis of pill use (after which the pill is stopped by the doctor), making those women an increased risk of pregnancy there.
Ie, I ended that comment by saying that these women had a chance of getting pregnant. And it was tacitly assuming that this was a kind of ironic end well.
But not so. These women could get pregnant, but had already shown that they did not respond well to Vaxx. There is a good chance that they would have a miscarriage after pregnancy. All thanks to the doctor who cannot see that you can get Vaxx thrombosis.
The deeper I think about this, the more it becomes clear to me why this jet -black period is preferably forgotten by all who were responsible for administering experimental junk for a disease that is best defined as a flu+medical negligence.
Not that this has to be: a guilty person with backbone would acknowledge and learn from it.
Well, perhaps ...
But for now I see little backbone. A lot of guilt.
Any idea where that will lead?
Yes, I think until the next (Quote Max Planck)
"A new scientific truth usually does not get the upper hand because her opponents are convinced and admit that they were wrong, but rather because her opponents are gradually extinguished and there is a new generation that has been familiar with the truth from the start."
Given the large number of those involved (opponents) who are debting, all about at least 25 years old (LFT on which doctors first practice their profession, I estimate that it will be known in about 50 years and things will change!
In other words: patience is a good thing ...
Nice for the long term, but that is not that interesting at all.
Unfortunately..

The current reporting, called "the news" I have been boring for a long time. This is dangerous for news tenders who want to keep the reader mesologized in the stories that they force the reader to silence the thoughts of the reader.
But it is: those stories in the newspaper, they are bored!
I have long left the Arena, in which the news of the day is presented daily as if it were a gladiator battle. What can I save the Gladiator "Rutte". What can I save the Gladiator "the climate". Yes, what can the Gladiator "The Out mortality debate" (as it is led in the newspapers) save!
As some of you know here, I have been a gladiator for a while. That yielded something, even if it was only for myself to experience what it is like to be seen by an audience as ... Gladiator.
Well, we know that again.
I also see the news from the past to place on my daily reality. That gives something new for myself. Sometimes I come across something that may be interesting for the public arena.
For example, I read in the biography of Slauerhoff, that as a 26 -year -old doctor he went for the first time (as a ship's doctor) to the Dutch East Indies. For this he had to be vaccinated (against what is not included). The biographer (Hazeu) reports the following:
The journey lasted 5 weeks ... with a sick ship doctor on board. The first days of the trip he had not yet had any big problems witnessing a letter to ... "everything so far, some fever of my vaccinations". But in the last week he had received a stomach bleed.
After this episode, Slauerhoff was struggling with his health for 12 years. He died at the age of 38, of a lung disease. It was said that the cause was TB (the only lung disease that could be "objectively" at the time through breeding). But are his symptoms fit in with that?
A more poetic diagnosis was that society had had Slauerhoff suffocated. Which writers did not die of suffocation in terms of society? -Spinoza, Keats, Perk, Van Ostaijen, Kafka, Slauerhoff, row of Namur that I stolen from an essay (over Kafka, from 1982) from Hermans. Hermans wrote below:
"The belief in spiritual causes for organic diseases tends to lose its persuasiveness as soon as the disease with chemical drugs can clearly be demonstrably cure"
Thirteen years later, Hermans died of suffocation for an organic disease ... who was not healed with chemical medicines.
And is it true that TB is healed using chemical medicines. You have to take an antibiotics cocktail for at least six months, says the RIVM (and then it is true). But even then the question is whether you are healed from TB (the condition is "stubborn"). What does help is if you know how to improve your immune system. It is not without reason that TB in the Netherlands is only endemic in people with immune disorders, which also continue under the name AIDS. If the immune disorder improves, the TB will disappear. To what extent antibiotics contributes to this has never been randomized and we do not know (although the RIVM knows, you can trust them on their white coats).
You can also be vaccinated against TB. There is a randomized study about this (since a few years) (on which I have participated), and it shows that:
BCG vaccination does not protect… against COVID-19, COVID-19 hospitalization, or clinically relevant RTIs. (=luchtwegziekte)
But that
The proportion of individuals hospitalized for cardiac arrhythmias after BCG was two-fold higher than reported after placebo
See https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39515666/
Which brings me to the following:
Has Slauerhoff perhaps died of vaccination? The symptoms fit, knowing, for example, that the risk of coagulation disorders has been increased due to vaccination. Perhaps Slauerhoff had a pulmonary embolism, diagnosis that you could not yet establish objectively (according to the current standard) and on which Slauerhoff was never investigated (according to the biography).
Just some ideas ...
In addition. Slauerhoff was in his time ... The news facility was more than fed up and set up his own magazine (with Du Perron, Ter Braak, other literary greats).
Why don't we do something like that?
I conclude from the comments under the line that there are more people here who are the news spectacle and can make their own news. Why leave everything to Anton, Herman et al?
Isn't it time to invest a meeting in which the writers of this site (below and above the line) come together and publish something jointly what they find worthwhile?
Perhaps that, taking Rien's words, this is interesting for the short term ...
There are magazines and a newspaper (the other newspaper). Anton gives us commentators the space here. I fully understand the need and that is why I faithfully follow everyone who speaks out. About TB: in Hungary the population is vaccinated against TB and many people responded more violently to the mrnaprik. In America (I don't know if that was/is in all states) it became/will be recognized. A friend of ours almost lost his Hungarian wife and adult child (born in Hungary) after their first mrnaprik. This diagnosis already came during their hospitalization. Both work at a large pharmaceutical company then spoke warning. They allowed it. It should be seen in Hungary's figures but is the registration correct? He hardly believed us that we have completely different experiences. That randomness makes public pronouncement extra difficult. Why does AI give in fact and proven information as an answer after several questions? My grandchildren use AI as humor. All the crazy things they have to learn, for example, about the climate, but knowing better, laughs laughs. Handy to make up for their keys. I am grateful to everyone who cooperates to get the bottom stone above!
Thank you Anton knows.
Thankful that you and others can transform figures into a language readable for me!
Nice and interesting reflections. I hardly follow the news. Just like in the old days, from some distance. And with more skepticism than ever, of course.
I think a kind of fatal spiral has been created. What is brought into the (mainstream) media is often adapted to what the people want to hear. Cowboys against Indians, the villain against the hero. Smart scientists who save the world from (invisible) dangers. The readers enjoy it and do not have to think in shades of gray and nuances. So this is actually not news, but propaganda (Pieter Klok story). The readers unquestionably accept these stories and everyone who thinks differently must be a dangerous extremist. They are a danger to the stability of society. The media add a little extra and the vicious circle is born.
I think there is at least 1 main character who feels this good: Robert Kennedy Junior. He does adjust things, but not in the chainsaw way of Musk. He knows that he must first turn public opinion. Most still think that traditional "health care" is infallible and has the truth in lease. In reality, it is precisely this healthcare itself that is one of the problems. It may nevertheless be called that the country with the highest spending on health care also houses the most unhealthy population. Even if you change institutions, this encounters protests among the population because they still believe in the system. Kennedy is in danger because he tackles a huge industrial complex. Only by waking up the population can he win this battle, I think. It's just a thought, maybe nothing is right.
In the Netherlands it is not much different, but every trace of a kind of Kennedy is missing here. But perhaps a change can be observed. You have to be fairly blind to not see that Mr. Rutte actually had to have some good conversations with a soul squeezer in a relaxed white space, whether or not with a swamp tube. That war rhetoric of this mother's child is horrifying. The "left" -oriented parties (who also want to spend those 5%) wake up Zomaaar in the same camp as the Trump they hated. Comical. The connection is that people perhaps see the dubious role of NATO/EU, and therefore perhaps wake up slowly. Thanks to Rutte who is now over -playing his hand? Wishful Thinking?
