Previous research has found that male survivors of the virus sometimes suffer erectile dysfunction and other genital tract issues, though it is often believed to be a result of inflammation as an immune response to the virus.
These researchers now believe that it is the virus itself, not the immune system, causing genital issues for infected males, changing the calculous for how this type of condition would be treated.
Researchers, who posted their findings last week in bioRxiv pending peer review before journal publication, performed research on three male rhesus macaques, a breed of monkey often used for such studies because they have many genetic similarities with humans.
Each of the monkeys had body scans performed on them after they were infected with the virus in an effort to detect where traces of the virus were visible.
Dr Thomas Hope, lead researcher and a biology professor at Northwestern, told the New York Times that 'the signal in the penis was off the radar.'
Researchers found spread of the virus in the penis of all three animals. One of the animals had infection in its testicles as well.
The findings indicate that the virus managed to infect and spread within the monkey's penis, likely causing the animals genital tract issues, like erectile dysfunction.
Researchers believe this type of spread can cause major damage to the region of the body in both animals and humans.

Hmmm...is is this a potential windfall for John Morgan or Saul Goodman?!
I hate it when that happens!
Regards,
Sounds like someone in that Wuhan really pulled a boner when they released this virus. (look up boner, it means to screw up or make a blunder...get your mind out of the gutter)
Its even worse than global warming on the male reproductive system.
Any man who is affected will have a good idea how to deal with Fauci.
LOL - spoken like a Veteran !
The ceebug virus attacks the pulmonary system. It damages the lungs first. I junks up the red blood cells which go to every part of the carcus. Why would it be surprising that ones package might be affected? But when the lungs start failing the last thing you’ll be concerned with is being known as Mr. Limpdick.
If I have to wear a mask for more than four hours, should I call my doctor?

Depends if your nose won’t shrink back down.
COVID-19 can infect penis and testicle cells and potentially cause erectile dysfunction...on the other hand the Covid vaccine can make your junk fall off.
Unvaxxed. Had covid. It’s a freakin’ 2-3 day cold. That’s it. No problems like what’s described above.
Frankly, this is most likely nothing more than pathetic propaganda intended to jump-start the moribund vax campaign. “Oh, dear, we’ve tried everything, and nothing seems to move the needle among the unvaxxed. I know! Wave the erectile dysfunction flag! That’ll scare ‘em into the jab!”
No! . . not my pee pee.
PENIS
I heard that climate change can cause this very dis-function as well. (sarcasm-off).
Well, I don’t know about that, but if you get the vaccine - it’ll fall off.
Let me check...
...OMG, SHRINKAGE!
...wait a minute...whew, seems fine.
“...changing the calculous for how this type of condition would be treated.”
Calculus was hard. Really hard.
Isn’t inflammation what the penis is supposed to do?
Are they cocksure about this?
Somehow I don't think my wife would like me referring to her as the one giving me covid symptoms. LOL
That's it! Now he is getting vaccinated for sure.
