PD06-09 SARS-COV-2 PERSISTENCE IN SEMEN AS A WINDOW TO STUDY LONG COVID | Journal of Urology
“This study confirms that SARS-CoV-2 can persist in the semen of patients who have recovered from COVID-19, indicating that the male genital tract may be a reservoir for the virus.”

“New research shows SARS-CoV-2 infection particles can persist in semen for up to 8 months after infection, raising critical questions about viral reservoirs and potential sexual transmission. The virus remained detectable in over half the study participants and was confirmed as infectious through cell culture. While decreased sperm quality showed signs of recovery by 6 months, the implications of viral persistence in the male genital tract remain under investigation.”
