艾莎 and Zixu Wang, 中国需要人们生育,试管婴儿能解决人口问题吗? 纽约时报中文网, Jan 30, 2023
https://cn.nytimes.com/china/20230130/china-birthrate-ivf/

, which is translated from

Alexandra Stevenson and Zixu Wang, Eager to Subsidize IVF to Ease a Crisis; To address China's declining population, the government plans to help pay for assisted fertility services, which are often a last resort for couples and out of reach for many. New York Times, Jan 23, 2023, at page B1 (B is Business section)
(in Chia: "Each round of IVF can cost $5,000 to $12,000, and many couples need to do it as many as four or five times; each round has a success rate of roughly 30 percent. Under the new government measures, medical insurance would likely cover about half the cost of a round of IVF * * * The policy has not been put into effect, its details are unclear * * * Today, infertility affects 18 percent of couples in China, compared with a global average of around 15 percent. Researchers cite several factors, including the fact that Chinese couples often wait until later to have children")

Excerpts *there are two) in the window of print:

'The problem is that it is putting a Band-Aid on a gushing wound.'
        Ayo Wahlberg, an anthropologist at the University of Copenhagen and the author of a book on fertility in China, said of the Chinese government's plan.

'The big picture is that people are less willing to have children.' Lin Haiwei [林海伟], chief executive of Beijing Perfect Family Hospital [北京家圆医院], who noted that the number of patients visiting the facility has dropped each year.


My comment: Perhaps due to Lunar New Year, 纽约时报中文网 made few translations for two weeks and now releases them in a deluge.
