AMMAN, Jordan — Twin boys have been born to a 32-year-old Jordanian woman through test-tube fertilization, the second pair born in Jordan in a week, a doctor reported.
Dr. Zeid Keilani, who headed the team handling the births at Khalidi Hospital, said Saturday that the twins weighed 4 1/2 pounds at birth and are doing well. One of the earlier set of twins, born last Monday, has died but the second child was reported doing well.
