it is pushed heavily because hospitals make more and all specialists involved stay busy and make more. its more convenient for doctors to have a procedure scheduled which is quick and poses almost no threat as opposed to a natural birth. a lot of women want natural birth, even with no epidural or vaccines and nurses/doctors are extremely pushy and opinionated on the entire topic. unfortunately women are also naive and agreeable so it takes a lot of courage for them to say no scores of times throughout their pregnancy, especially when doctors say they have a risk of dying, the child will get sick and die etc. long before covid i already hated them
