The article is not talking about infertility - it's talking about fertility rate which are different thing.

The total fertility rate (TFR) of a population is the average number of children that are born to a woman over her lifetime, if they were to experience the exact current age-specific fertility rates (ASFRs) through their lifetime, and they were to live from birth until the end of their reproductive life.

    Yes but the headline may be using specific terms that the people who study this understand rather than actually doing what headlines are supposed to do which is convey understanding to normal regular everyday people which is my point. The title of a news article isn't for scientists. It's for normies.
