Vaccine uptake among men must have been particularly low recently… The risk of developing erectile dysfunction is the latest reason that we should all do our best to avoid catching Covid, according to a medical student working on a new study of just four men (all over the age of 65). Sky News has the story.
A scientific research paper published in the World Journal of Men’s Health observed the difference in tissue composition between men who had contracted the disease and men who had not.
Covid can cause damage to blood vessels, which in turn can damage parts of the body the vessels supply, including the sponge-like tissue in the penis.
Ranjith Ramasamy, Associate Professor and Director of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine’s Reproductive Urology Programme, led the study.
He said that erectile dysfunction “could be an adverse effect of the virus”.
The study focused on four men who were having penile prosthesis surgery for erectile dysfunction.
Two had suffered with Covid, and two had not. They were all aged between 65 and 71 and of Hispanic ethnicity.
The pair who had the coronavirus were infected six and eight months before the observations, with one hospitalised for the virus and the other not.
Neither had a history of erectile dysfunction.
Remnants of the virus were observed in the penis tissue of the two Covid-positive men…
Dr Ramasamy said: … “Our research shows that Covid can cause widespread endothelial dysfunction in organ systems beyond the lungs and kidneys.
“The underlying endothelial dysfunction that happens because of Covid can enter the endothelial cells and affect many organs, including the penis.”
Eliyahu Kresch, a medical student working with Dr Ramasamy, said: “These latest findings are yet another reason that we should all do our best to avoid Covid.”
Cue more Covid-safe sex advice from the BBC!

But did you notice the BBC headline? Sex and Covid: What are the rules?The RULES??
simple – no kissing, wear a face covering and no face to face contact when having sex. I think the BBC has now sunk to a new low – lower than I ever thought was possible. Do these people not think for a second before they press “send”???
But surely this is good? I mean nothing could make sex safer than erectile dysfunction, right? If you lose it, you can’t do it?
well it would support that old depopulation agenda.
But – and this cannot be stated enough – the ‘vaccines’ do NOT stop you getting it. So this is an especially pointless piece.
Given that the sample size was four and all aged over 65 I would have thought that they would be going to bed with a cup of cocoa rather than thoughts of nookie.
Presumably this was a stand alone study. 🙂
You obviously don’t know how the other half lives, do you? Life begins at 65 when the kids are gone, the grandkids are old enough to entertain themselves and you can have a lie-in each morning. What’s not to like?
The wrinkles.

Alone is the safest form of sex. That’s why primary school children are now taught how to masturbate. Presumably on Zoom. Come on, Johnny, I have you on camera and I can see you aren’t (trying) hard enough!
I’m told that some perverts also find partial suffocation sexually exciting, so muzzles will be beneficial,
Oh F**K OFF
But they can’t any longer now they’ve had C19. So much for Long Covid.
DONG COVID!
You mean NO DONG.
Even if it were true, and a study of 4 doesn’t sound useful to me, I’d sooner loose my fertility than my liberty.
I thought we were only allowed a “cautious” hug anyway!
Disappointed with the graphic the bbc have used in their tweet. C- for wokeness.
Some words spring to mind. Repellent being one of them.
I imagine MOST BBC types use the back door already, being as they glorify queerdom.
That takes care of point 3 above.
I’m looking forward to the official announcement live on TV by Boris or Matt (where is he?) or better still Valance or Whitty that “casual sex is back on the cards”.
Pantsdown will be pleased. His modelling may show that a zillion people will die from sex every day unless we are all locked up forever, but Pantsdown’s right to fornicate is sacrosanct.
I recall that one thing the Party strove ferociously to do in 1984 was to take all the joy out of sex. Scientists were working to abolish the orgasm. I used to think Orwell had gone OTT there, but that was Before Covvie.
“Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.”

Any ideas what on earth the fruit are supposed to represent?? Cover your peachy cheeks with a mask?
It’s a row of three different fruits. Basically that means ‘You lose.’
I’m suprised that the official advice isn’t to do it through a hole in a persplex screen, you can’t be too careful with Covid.
That would be more logical (but still utterly pointless) than advice to wear a cotton muzzle while engaged in a biological process where the whole point is to share bodily fluids.
My thoughts exactly.
“Avoiding kissing
Wearing a face covering
Choosing positions that aren’t face-to-face during sex“
So basically just dogging. And presumably only between fully vaccinated members of your support bubble.
Who says the Brits aren’t romantic?
Well, this doesn’t seem to affect those coming to “A Stand In The Park” every Sunday.
No indeed, they stand proudly erect.
Dear oh dear .. I’m sure I read somewhere it’s the vaccine that causes this .. maybe damned if you do damned if you don’t .. obviously another little nudge the young’uns to have the frankensteinian concoctions
Doesn’t seemed to have stopped Boris being such a WANKER!
I think I can discern a new use for those rigid rods they’ve been sticking up people’s noses.
It’s just bollocks.
Dysfunctional bollocks.
Covid sufferers die intexticulate.
Ivor Cummins in his interview of Sebastian Rushworth describes the world right now as insane.
David Eberhard talks about a mass psychosis.
This report proves they are right. This is total insanity. So called scientists will be saying that the virus causes global warming and creates nuclear explosions next.
There will also always be a reason (eg the Indian variant) for everyone to be told to stay under the bed. All that time, our lives drain away anyway. This is utterly self defeating. Pure insanity on the part of the human species.
Indeed you speak truth, when you link the WuFlu to global warming – spot on Stephen.
I think this just goes to show how desperate those behind this whole criminal charade have become. You would not need to produce propaganda 24/7 or release insane articles like this, if the threat was truly on a massive, human-ending scale. It would be self-evident and it would not be necessary to use psychological manipulation and employ behavioural scientists.
In the US the New York Mayor, Bill de Blasio, is even offering free burger and chips, if you take the vaccine. And in another State you will be entered into a $1M lottery. It’s desperate stuff.
Hold your ground people and live free.
Wish these criminals would make their minds up.

Last summer they were trying to scare people with the exact opposite story.
Are they getting sex advice like this in France?
“Neither had a history of erectile dysfunction.”
Of course they did not had any issues before. When asked by researches, they answered: “I do not have any problem in this department and never had”. Sure.
Here’s a challenge. See if you can think up a scare story to top this one. I can’t.
We’ve arrived folks – peak insanity!
“Successful fertilisation by two infected partners leads to mutant parasitical cannibal babies”
Could Boris give the advice to abstain from casual sex direct to the nation?
So on top of
Covid toe (aka athletes foot)
and
Sars grapes (haemorrhoids)
we now have
Coof cock
Splendid
Should we be questioning Neil Ferguson on the position he took with his married girlfriend?
This will backfire spectacularly when it becomes widely understood that the vascular damage is caused by the ‘spike’ protein which, while part of the virus, is being manufactured in the cells of every jabbed man woman or child. Research in Oxford has now shown that the risk from the virus in terms of thrombocytopenia and clotting is not higher in those who become infected compared to those jabbed!
Remind me, “why are we getting the jab?”
Desperation! We have entered the Twilight zone.
