StatsCan doesn’t have circumcision in their top 12 causes of infant death even, but I’ll keep looking for you........

Okay so just assuming you're not lying, are you saying everything that's not a top 12 cause of infant death doesn't matter? If some parents decided to shoot their kids in the leg with a gun at birth, and the death rate from that didn't make the top 12, you'd sign off on it?

I wish you read the thread from the start. Our friend’s argument suggested that Australia’s circ rate had a huge impact on infant mortality rates. That’s false.

You've given no proof that it's false, only conjecture based on a hand-picked list of institutions NOT mentioning it. That doesn't prove anything.

Lol. The burden of proof goes both ways my friend. Find a source that says circumcision is a major cause of infant death then will ya.

I already linked you a source that identified "1 early death for every 49,166 newborn inpatient circumcisions" https://www.researchgate.net/publication/326040454_Factors_associated_with_early_deaths_following_neonatal_male_circumcision_in_the_United_States_2001-2010 … A number that is certainly a gross underestimate since it ONLY counted cases where death occurred during the same hospital admission as the cut

Cases like this wouldn't count: https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2007/feb/17/religion.world1 … People have estimated the total impact outside that constraint and concluded ~117 deaths per year in USA alone: https://www.academia.edu/6394940/Lost_Boys_An_Estimate_of_U.S._Circumcision-Related_Infant_Deaths … You are trying to justify forcing unnecessary surgery on kids that causes this.

Lol. “Estimated” data and selective sources. By your own logic, all day, these are BS. You should expect better of yourself considering the high bar you’ve established for fact and proof.

I cited you original research from someone who directly went through case reports to compile a fact-based evaluation of the number of deaths that occurred in the same hospital admission as the circumcision, probably took years of work, and you dismiss it with "BS". Learn to read

And circumcision, which does not have any immediate legitimate medical indication in newborns, and rarely has any legitimate medical indication in adults, is an unnecessary surgery which only inflicts harm. Circumcision is an avoidable cause of infant death.
