“The scientists tested 23 human testes”

!!!!! 23 !!!!!!

And from that tiny study that want to claim “every”- all human testes have microplastics in them??? That is not “science”.

Its a sample, a small one, but presumably random.
It is a statistically meaningful result, if the testing is valid, etc.
Its worth checking a larger, random sample.

“Every” means all those in the sample.

This is the problem with press reports. Ambiguous wording can create unwarranted reactions.
