A Dutch sperm donor, known as Simon, has admitted to fathering at least 199 children, including 11 in Belgium. The man, who is from the Groningen region, has been donating sperm for years and was aware that he was a mass donor since 2017. Despite this, he was allowed to participate in a committee evaluating the donor law in 2019. The Ministry of Health was aware of his actions but did not intervene. Mothers of the donor children are raising the alarm and want him to stop. Simon claims he has stopped donating sperm and will seek professional guidance.
