My guess is that even with the increase in deaths due to quaxx, there is so much population momentum and pent up desire for children that all the govt has to do is to relax the "one child policy" and their population will double again (that happened TWICE before).
Of course they are also physical limits in energy and food but I agree with you - China will probably have half of the world population at some point in the next couple of hundred of years. This was true 1000 years ago so it could happen again. Of course the world's population might be less than 1 billion at that point.
