In South Africa, a woman gave birth to 10 babies at once: a world record or fiction?

The name of Tamara Sithole’s Goziam will surely go down in history. Or she will become the first and so far the only woman who has borne and given birth to 10 children at once. Or a resident of South Africa will be caught cheating, for as yet unknown purposes. The story is very confusing and contradictory.

Goziam Tamara Sithol (probably). There is no documentary evidence.

Her husband gave a very short interview and only to one publication. Seven boys and three girls.

It is not known in which hospital Goziam gave birth. Where is she and the children now, too. No new information has been received in two days, and the journalist who interviewed disappeared into the water. Msvandile Masina, the mayor of Ekurhuleni, where the couple allegedly lives, does not know such people and cannot find them at home. And the head of the Department of State Communications, Fumla Williams, directly asked the press and the public to share information, otherwise such an important, unique event, and the authorities do not know anything.

But there are photos! Uh-huh, in the era of Photoshop and deepfakes.

For comparison, here are the documentary pictures of Halima Cisse, a resident of Morocco. She gave birth to nine!

In the case of Halima, everything is documented and extremely clean, her case has become not just unique, but indicative. The girl could not get pregnant for a long time and decided on hormone therapy, but due to an overdose, multiple pregnancies developed. Her pregnancy was monitored by the best doctors in the country, and a huge team of 10 obstetricians and 25 nurses took delivery. The risk was enormous, all the children were premature, with critically low body weight, all had different deviations. Their nursing has become no less a test for the country’s medical system than the birth itself.

Saving an unusual mother was a feat of doctors and certainly the whole country learned about it. Hence the question — if Goziam Sithol really gave birth to ten, how did she manage it, that no one knows anything?

And such a small fact — the nine-year-olds were born just a month ago and together with their mother are still in the hospital. And then, like thunder from the sky, there are already 10 kids! A coincidence?
