As the world awaits a coronavirus vaccine, experts in Italy and the US are warning of another potential long-term consequence of COVID-19: erectile dysfunction.
During a recent interview with the US broadcaster NBC, American physician Dena Grayson said there was growing concern that COVID-19 could cause long-term difficulty getting an erection.
"We know that it causes issues in the vasculature," Grayson said. "So this is something that is of real concern - not just that this virus can kill, but can actually cause long-term, lifelong potential complications."
A study out of Italy in July found that erectile dysfunction was both a risk factor for COVID-19 pneumonia and also a "likely consequence" of the disease for survivors, making it a "worrying phenomenon" among elderly patients in particular.
"Erectile dysfunction is a perfect biomarker of general physical and psychological health," said the study's lead author, Emmanuele Jannini, professor of endocrinology and medical sexology at the Tor Vergata University of Rome. As COVID-19 affects both mental and physical well-being, he said, erectile dysfunction is not necessarily a surprising consequence of the disease.
People infected with coronavirus who have previously suffered erectile dysfunction may also be more prone to developing COVID-19 pneumonia, according to Jannini.
That's because pneumonia entails the same comorbidities that are often associated with erectile dysfunction, he said, including respiratory difficulties, inflammation, hormonal issues, stress, anxiety, depression and endothelial dysfunction - or when the lining of the small arteries constricts.

I don’t believe a word of it.
In your picture of Xi, he seems to be showing the length of something. Maybe he’s had COVID.

Maybe more time should have been taken to develop the Covid vaccine. The Operation Warp Speed approach was the wong call.
“Erectile dysfunction is a perfect biomarker of general physical and psychological health,”
Don’t forget dandruff, bad breath, foot odor, and weight gain! /s
Pfizer has already developed a product for that particular affliction. Maybe they can slip some of it into the vaccine.
That would make the needle too stiff. !
Covid causes body odor.
Well now, that would make sense and explain a few things.
Bkmk
Maybe the ORIGINAL report of HIV pieces spliced into the CCP virus were true? Maybe these “false positives” are not false?
Are YOU motivated to get a vax now?

Both.
So I guess Fauci will be recommending full body condoms as the new PPE.
