Dutch fertility doctor ‘secretly fathered at least 49 children’
DNA tests show Jan Karbaat, who died in 2017, used his own sperm instead of donors’
A deceased Dutch doctor mired in a fertility scandal fathered at least 49 children, an organisation representing parents and children born through IVF at his now-closed clinic has said.
Jan Karbaat, who died in 2017, is the direct father of 49 children born after women visited his Rotterdam clinic, where he used his own sperm instead of that from a chosen donor to inseminate them, Defence for Children said.
