Not quite that narrow. There have been 108 billion people that ever lived approximately (https://www.prb.org/howmanypeoplehaveeverlivedonearth/). Those are the lives I believe are counted.
Quote:“Modern” Homo sapiens (that is, people who were roughly like we are now) first walked the Earth about 50,000 years ago. Since then, more than 108 billion members of our species have ever been born, according to estimates by Population Reference Bureau (PRB). Given the current global population of about 7.5 billion (based on our most recent estimate as of mid-2017), that means those of us currently alive represent about 7 percent of the total number of humans who have ever lived.
Okay, we're done here.
