2) Study: “In conclusion, there is quite enough reason to suspect that male sexual and reproductive health could be affected in the survivors, by the sequelae of the COVID-19, both in the short and long terms”. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7355084/

5) Another study: “Expression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, receptor of #SARSCoV2, is high in the testes, therefore SARS-CoV-2 infection and its association with male reproductive health should be investigated in male #COVID19 patients.” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7314215/
