Donor scandal affects 52 children in Belgium: “Gross negligence of the parties involved”

In Belgium alone, 52 children were conceived with sperm from a donor with a carcinogenic gene. It is a defect in the TP53 gene, which is responsible for the Li-Fraumeni syndrome, a rare hereditary disorder that greatly increases the sensitivity to a wide range of cancers. Vzw Donorkinderen sounds the alarm and speaks of a serious system error.
