近日荷蘭幾名單身母親一同向當(dāng)局舉報(bào)，有一名男子在多個(gè)地方捐精。經(jīng)調(diào)查，該男子竟在11家不同診所捐精，是102名兒童的生物學(xué)父親。據(jù)荷蘭法律，捐精者一生最多只能有25個(gè)孩子，這是為了降低他們?cè)杏龅淖优诓恢榈那闆r下近親戀愛(ài)的幾率。

A sperm donor in the Netherlands is the center of a fertility scandal after an investigation showed that he had fathered 102 children by donating at 11 different clinics.

荷蘭一位捐精者成為一起生育丑聞的主角，經(jīng)調(diào)查，他在11家不同的診所捐獻(xiàn)了精子，繁衍了102個(gè)孩子。

An investigation into the man, who has not been publicly named, was launched after single mothers warned the authorities of a donor who gave his sperm at several clinics.

該男子遭到調(diào)查是因?yàn)閹孜粏紊韹寢屜虍?dāng)局舉報(bào)一名捐精者在多所診所捐獻(xiàn)精子。他的身份尚未被公開(kāi)。

Sperm donors are supposed to sign contracts agreeing not to donate at different clinics, though the rule is not often checked or enforced.

捐精者應(yīng)當(dāng)簽署協(xié)議，同意不在其他診所捐獻(xiàn)精子，不過(guò)這項(xiàng)規(guī)定往往不會(huì)被核實(shí)，也并非強(qiáng)制。

By law, a sperm donor in the Netherlands is only allowed to sire 25 children to limit the chance that conceived children would later end up in a relationship not knowing they are half-siblings.

據(jù)荷蘭法律，捐精者一生最多只能有25個(gè)孩子，以降低他們?cè)杏龅淖优诓恢榈那闆r下與同父異母的親人戀愛(ài)的幾率。

The donor of the 102 children told a Dutch daily that his motive 'was not to have as many children as possible'.

這位擁有102個(gè)子女的捐精者告訴荷蘭一家日?qǐng)?bào)，自己的初衷并不是希望“兒女越多越好”。

He said: 'I just like to do it and to make people happy. It makes me feel helpful. The gratitude of doctors and prospective parents is great.'

他說(shuō)：“我就是喜歡這樣做，喜歡讓人們快樂(lè)。這讓我覺(jué)得自己很有幫助。醫(yī)生和那些想做父母的人都非常感謝我。”

The man said: 'Clinics are already happy if they have a donor who passes the screening.' He said that his sperm was 'often immediately used'.

男子表示：“如果捐精者能夠通過(guò)篩選，診所就已經(jīng)很高興了。”他還稱(chēng)自己的精子“通常會(huì)被立刻使用”。

Another man was also caught having donated his sperm to multiple clinics, but he had fathered only two children.

另一名男子也被發(fā)現(xiàn)將精子捐獻(xiàn)給多個(gè)診所，但他只繁衍了兩個(gè)孩子。

The Dutch association of gynaecologists (NVOG) called sperm clinics to immediately stop using the sperm of the two men.

荷蘭婦產(chǎn)科醫(yī)師協(xié)會(huì)(NVOG)要求精子診所立即停止使用這兩名男子的精子。

It pleaded for a central sperm and egg donor registration 'to prevent such situations from happening'.

該協(xié)會(huì)要求建立一個(gè)精子、卵子捐獻(xiàn)者登記中心，“以免此類(lèi)情況發(fā)生”。

Both men even offered their sperm outside of clinics on the internet and through personal contacts as well.

這兩名男子甚至在診所之外通過(guò)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)以及私下接觸提供精子。

The health care inspectorate has launched an official investigation into the matter.

荷蘭醫(yī)療衛(wèi)生監(jiān)督機(jī)構(gòu)已經(jīng)對(duì)這一事件展開(kāi)正式調(diào)查。

Earlier this year, another scandal broke out around the head of a fertility clinic, with a DNA test proving that a sperm doctor illegally used his own sperm to father at least 19 children with unsuspecting women.

今年早些時(shí)候，生育診所爆出另一則丑聞，DNA測(cè)試證明一名精子醫(yī)生非法使用自己的精子讓不知情的女性孕育了19個(gè)他的孩子。
