The increasing cases of Coronavirus infection in China have troubled the Chinese government as the outbreak of this epidemic has led to a decline in marriages and birth rates.
The National Health Commission of China has said that due to Covid-19, marriages are decreasing and children are also being born less, that is, the birth rate has declined. For this, the cost of education and the cost of raising children is also responsible.
The commission said that the situation is that girls in the country are now deferring their plans to get married or become mothers. In fact, in the last few years, a lot has changed due to the rapid economic and social development in the country. There has been an increase in the youth of the country settling in urban areas, they are given more and more time to study, and pressure in the field of work is also an important aspect.
Zero Covid policy is heavy on China
Demographers have also said that the zero covid policy being adopted for the prevention of corona in China is also responsible for fewer marriages or less birth of children because, under it, people's ways of living are strictly controlled. have been implemented.
In such a situation, their desire to have children is also getting affected somewhere. Because of this, people are thinking deeply about getting married or increasing their family after marriage.
Record drop in the birth rate
Demographers say that the birth rate in China will drop to a record low this year. Last year 10.6 million babies were born in China, while less than 10 million are estimated to be born this year. This figure is 11.5% less than the year 2020.
The fertility rate in China in 2021 was 1.16, which is among the lowest rates in the world. This is well below the OECD's 2.1 standards for a stable population. That is, to keep the population of the country stable, it is necessary to have a fertility rate of 2.1.
Three child policy now implemented in China
One child policy was implemented in China from 1980 to 2015. One child policy was implemented in China from 1980 to 2015 to stop the increasing population.
Under this policy, the government forced people to undergo abortion and sterilization on a large scale. But because of the decline in the country's population, China abolished this policy in 2016 and instead implemented the Two Child Policy. Nothing more happened than that.
The rapidly declining birth rate in the country posed a demographic threat. In such a situation, China has been encouraging people to have three children since last year. For this, several measures have been announced, including extending the period of maternity leave, subsidizing the expenses incurred during pregnancy and childbirth, and giving exemption in taxes.
