In July 1978, the world's first test-tube baby was born in the UK. This was the result of the joint research by Dr. Steptoe and Dr. Edowrds and was hailed as a miracle in the history of human medicine. At Oldham Hospital, under the care of Dr. John Webster, the world's first test-tube baby was born. She was a girl named Louise Brown. Louise weighed about 2.6 kilograms at birth, had blonde hair and blue eyes, and appeared very healthy.

Today, Louise Brown is married and has given birth to healthy children. Therefore, the claim circulating online that test-tube babies are not as healthy as naturally conceived children is not true.
