Sperm Count May Be Low for Months After COVID
Sperm quality is impaired for months in some men after recovery from COVID-19, researchers have found.
They studied semen samples obtained from 120 Belgian men with an average age of 35 years, at an average of 52 days after COVID-19 symptoms had resolved.
The semen itself was not infectious, the researchers found.
But among 35 men who provided samples within a month after infection, reductions in sperm motility were evident in 60% and sperm counts were reduced in 37%, according to a report in Fertility and Sterility.
Among 51 men tested between one and two months after recovery, 37% had reduced sperm motility and 29% had low sperm counts.
And among 34 men who provided semen samples at least two months after recovery, sperm motility was impaired in 28% and sperm counts were low in 6%.
The severity of COVID-19 infection was not correlated with sperm characteristics.

This Mysterious Thorium Car Can Run Continuously For 100 Years With Just 8 Grams
Thorium’s huge density (11.7 grams per cubic meter) allows it to store a staggering amount of energy, more than 20 million times that of coal. This means that a tiny amount of Thorium may give the same amount of energy as a huge amount of coal or oil. One gram of thorium has an energy content of 28,000 gallons of oil.
