This sounds like woo. People believe the phase of the moon has an effect too.
Humans are really good at finding correlating events and linking them together, even when they’re completely unrelated. Often, the assumptions that lead to the conclusion don’t get in the way of being correct.
However when a link is completely unfalsifiable, unprovable, and unlikely, we’re also really good at making up bullshit and convincing ourselves it’s true.
You’ve kinda already made up your mind what category you want to fall in to, seems like you came here looking for justification, not falsification. So, I won’t waste any more energy on this.
The short answer is no.
The long answer is there is absolutely no scientific data to support this claim, and anyone that tells you otherwise is sniffing the same bullshit they’re selling.
