it seems china's next generations will face a whole set of new challenges. for more on the story we asked a w correspondent, mathias building in beijing. how serious china's demographic crisis is. 4 years ago, china lifted the ban on the 2nd child and allow people to have 2 children. there was a very small baby woman the following year, but already the year after the birth rate started declining again, having reached the lowest point last year, the pandemic might have played into this very low number as well. but the trend is clear, the numbers are declining, it is not very likely that this is going to change just because the government puts the number at 3. it's much easier to prevent people from having children than to encourage them. trying to government is finding out now that there are many reasons for that. one reason is that the parents will have one now thinking about their family planning while maybe around 30 years old. they, many of them have never known families with 2 children. this is the one child generation and the other thing is in the highly competitive education system, man

it seems china's next generations will face a whole set of new challenges. one or more of the story we asked the w correspondent, mathias building a in beijing. how serious china's demographic process. it's 4 years ago china lifted the band on the 2nd child and allow people to have 2 children. there was a very small baby boom and the following year. but already the year after the birth rate started declining again, having reached the lowest point last year, the pandemic might have played into this very low number as well. but the trend is clear, the numbers are declining. it is not very likely that this is going to change just because the government puts the number at free. it's much easier to prevent people from having children than to encourage them. china's government is finding out now, there are many reasons for that. one reason is that the parents who have, who are now thinking about their family planning while maybe around 30 years old, they, many of them have never known families with 2 children. this is the one child generation . and the other thing is in the highly competitive education

sources, more, more ability to gather information, as is their job, the navy, the w h o would have in negotiations with china. but we know that none of this was really new. although there's growing skepticism about the natural emergence theory, you know, serious scientists have been looking at this question since the beginning of the pandemic and looking for answers. ok. so the 2 theories, one either emerge naturally or the other is that there was a lab accident. and why is that the lab accident theory so sensitive? well, of course, lab accidents would mean culpability liability. there could be legal claims. there could be huge financial damages, of course, and of course the political ramifications there's respect and prestige on the world stage, as i mentioned. and also, let's not forget that a year ago, donald trump, for president united states, he was pushing a very nativist anti china, almost conspiracy. that this was somehow intentionally leaked by china to damage the world. they were. and china, for part, had conspiracies against the united states that there was somehow a u. s. military plot against ch

the w h o investigators were really being controlled quite heavily by chinese authorities. it's of course in china's interest for their own credibility and their own respect on the world stage that this, this doesn't land on their plate, so to speak. if it were to found, be found out that there was a lab leak in one of their most prestigious labs in whoo, hon. now, of course, with the us intelligence community doing their own reporting, us intelligence, cia, and i say other organizations they don't need permission from china or for any other country to go about their business at the very nature of intelligence. so they may have more access, more sources, more, more ability to gather information, as is their job, the navy, the w h o would have in negotiations with china. but we know that none of this was really new. although there's growing skepticism about the natural emergence theory, you know, serious scientists have been looking at this question since the beginning of the pandemic and looking for answers. ok. so the, as you say, 2 theories, one either emerge naturally or the other is that there w
