Can Covid-19 Coronavirus Cause Long-Term Erectile Dysfunction? Here Are 2 More Studies
Forbes ^ | May 16, 2021 | Bruce Y. Lee

Posted on 06/02/2021 5:22:55 PM PDT by nickcarraway

A new publication in The World Journal of Men's Health described what happened to two men following bouts with Covid-19 coronavirus infections. Six to eight months afterwards, they still had virus particles in their penises. Not only that. They had developed severe erectile dysfunction (ED) even though they hadn’t had ED prior to having Covid-19.

In fact, the two men had ED so severe that they underwent penile implant surgery. This offered a team from the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, (Eliyahu Kresch, Justin Achua, Russell Saltzman, Kajal Khodamoradi, Himanshu Arora, Emad Ibrahim, Oleksandr N. Kryvenko, Vania Wolff Almeida, Fakiha Firdaus, Joshua M. Hare, and Ranjith Ramasamy) an opportunity to examine samples of the patients’ penile tissue. After all, unless you are already undergoing surgery, “take a sample of your penile tissue” may not be the first thing that you want to hear. For comparison, the team also looked at penile tissue from two patients who hadn’t had Covid-19 but were undergoing penile implant surgery as well. The team then stained the tissue samples from the four patients and used an electron microscope to examine the samples.

Examination found Covid-19 coronavirus particles near the blood vessel endothelial cells in the samples from the two patients who had had Covid-19. Blood vessel endothelial cells are cells lining the insides of the blood vessels in the penile tissue. They didn’t find such virus particles in the samples from the two patients who hadn’t had Covid-19. They also found lower levels of endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase (eNOS) and endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) function in those who had had Covid-19 compared to those who hadn’t. Lower levels of eNOS and EPC function suggests the endothelial cells may not be functioning as well.

Now watch as they blame covid for the infertility and impotency that’s going to be caused by the so called vaccines.

Is there anything Covid-1984 can’t do?

No problem here.

Psychology being what it is, let them eat noodles.

I had covid at the first of January. My wife complains that I’m too, uh, not disfunctional.

I’m close to 40, so I’m not too old. But my drive has been quite high before, during, and after covid.

Sorry to be so plain spoken, but I think this is an attempt to correlate a much unwanted issue with covid.

In order to push the vaccine, that is.

it matters not.

FauXi and this TREASONOUS conspirators
patented BOTH the virus they designed with the HIV warhead,
and the “vaccine” which seeks out brain, ovaries,
and pancreatic beta cells with prions.

Nothing to see here says the MSM and the CDC
which has made TRILLIONS off of their patents.

Increasing Nitrous oxide delivery is how Viagra works.

Did they receive the “vaccine”? Those pesky spike proteins cause all sorts of vascular problems. They can also gather in various organs and wreak havoc. It seems to vary from one person to the next, and some have no obvious problems . . . at least not yet.

by ‘particles’ they mean spike proteins and they want to hide the damage done by the ‘vaccines’ which cause the body to produce billions of spike proteins.

Can it? Probably. Will it? Probably not. Covid attacks endothelial cells. It “can” damage your heart, lungs and vascular system. If you had a severe case, you probably have damage in many areas. The real question is, will those tissues recover? Hopefully the answer is yes.

The Biden government is enough to cause flaccid doogies. Except for Joe who still hits on little girls which seems to be fine in America these days.

There’s a LOT of money to be spent in the stupid covid relief bill. Everybody’s looking for an excuse. I’ve even heard advertisements on the radio asking for suggestions on how to spend huge piles of it.

Very true. They know men fear ED, so maybe that will get them to offer up their arm for the planet.
