Sex in a pandemic can be complicated, Canada's lead medical doctor says, and it's best to skip kissing and perhaps wear a mask to prevent spreading Covid-19. Dr. Theresa Tam, Canada's Chief Public Health Officer, issued a public statement Wednesday on staying safe from the virus when engaging in sexual activities. "Sexual health is an important part of our overall health. However, sex can be complicated in the time of Covid-19..." the statement says, with risks increasing for partners engaging with people outside their household.
Theresa Tam, Canada's chief public health officer, said sex should be avoided if either partner had Covid-19 symptoms. "The lowest risk sexual activity during Covid-19 involves yourself alone," Tam advises. But for Canadians choosing to "engage in an in-person sexual encounter" outside their bubble, she suggests a number of steps to reduce risk including "avoiding face-to-face contact or closeness."
A trusting relationship should first be established and partners should also consider using a mask that covers the nose and mouth, Tam says. "Current evidence indicates there is a very low likelihood of contracting the novel coronavirus through semen or vaginal fluids. However, even if the people involved do not have symptoms, sexual activity with new partners does increase your risk of getting or passing Covid-19 through close contact, like kissing," her statement.

A perfect argument against socialized medicine right there!
My Gawd...there IS one loonier than Fauci.
“Wear a mask while having sex...”
Observation:
Gay men get a rare health plus on this, because one partner is often facing away from the other.
/S
Some people might have been wearing masks while having sex long before Covid-19, just saying....
An argument for paper bags I'd say.
Actually, this is sound advice after 2AM on a Saturday night.
Okay I get it.
With a face like that, she is obviously not getting any so she wants to ruin sex for everyone else.
Not to mention she is certifiably insane.
CNN finally has a story that is not fake news.
"You must wear your election-infection mask long time."
So “underwear off”...but “face undies” are OK.
Thanks for posting. Exactly what I was thinking
If your wife is a 400 pound wrestler with a mustache.
She’s a double bagger.
Something tells me she doesn't have to worry about that too much.
