• Resumen

  • Dr Hesketh and colleagues1 provided a summary and critique of China’s one-child policy, expressing skepticism that eliminating this policy will cause fertility rates in China to rebound. The authors delineated several positive aspects of the one-child policy. However, those apparent positives are mitigated by the corresponding costs associated with them.
