Can a woman who has never had sex get pregnant? Tracy

Dear Tracy,
Ever since the virgin birth of Jesus, no any other miraculous virgin pregnancy has taken place save for those happening in laboratories through In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF).

During the treatment, a virgin woman’s eggs can be retrieved and mixed with sperm in a petri dish and the resulting embryos inserted in the reproductive system of the virgin to effect pregnancy.

A virgin woman swimming in the same swimming pool with a man who then ejaculates when he has thousands of times stronger than normal sperms (spermafortis) that was said to have occurred in Florida resulting in a boy of 15 years impregnating 16 girls at the same time in the same swimming pool must have been a hoax.
