there is no proof she is the 8th billion person in the world, what if the real 8th bilion person wasnt born at a hospital? `~HelpingWorld~` (👽🛸) 02:37, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
The first sentence of the article states that she was "selected as the symbolic eight billionth person on Earth" by the United Nations. Johnson524 (Talk!) 02:40, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
@HelpingWorld: It's a symbolic pick. It's impossible to truly know who the 8 billionth person born was, so the United Nations chose who they knew to be closest to that actual number and picked them, which just so happened to be Vinice. The UN has done this since the 5 billionth person was born, because it's a want from many people to know who the person who broke such an incredible milestone is, and it gives the newspapers something to write about. Kind of a drawn out answer, but I hope I answered your question 🙂 Johnson524 (Talk!) 03:04, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
