This Olympics feels oddly like the beginning of World War Z. I read the book and don’t even remember how it starts, nor do I remember how the loosely-based movie begins. But for some reason I can’t helping associating the title with the upcoming Olympics.

Just to be clear though, home birth doesn't necessarily mean unassisted. There are lots of countries (not the US), where midwives are more common, and they take on home births.
