I'll point out that the link above I removed was to a scum red top, and likely has as much credibility as a nine pound note. Either way, I'm struggling to see why traces of (not necessarily infectious) virus in semen is harder to avoid for us than those an infected person is breathing out just being in the same room - I would have thought it's the easiest thing to mitigate since most of us are likely to have some condoms lying about?
Maybe the scummy red top has no credibility bu these two British professors do
Prof Allan Pacey, Professor of Andrology at Sheffield University, said: “It shows that RNA for the virus responsible for Covid-19 can be detected in the semen of a proportion 16 per cent of men with a confirmed infection.
“This opens up the possibility that one route of infection may be through sexual contact, although this was not confirmed in the paper.
so does
Professor Richard Sharpe, from Edinburgh University and a Member of the Society of Endocrinology, said: “It found a minority of men who have had Covid-19 infection diagnosed in a hospital, also exhibit the presence of Covid-19 virus in their semen.
I would think the fact it looks like covid can possiblybe passed on via semen is very relevant to coronavirus affecting bookings especially the potential regarding OWO and CIM bookings. Hopefully even though it is in semen it cannot be passed on this way since 16% of infected guys is quite high in my books anyway. Condoms are not used by everyone but maybe they should be when restrictions are relaxed and OWO should be out of the question
