Dr. Cohen on CNN: Sperm count not harmed by Covid-19 vaccine
“If you are a man who has hesitated to get the Covid-19 vaccine due to concerns spread on social media that the vaccine may harm fertility, take heart.

‘We now have evidence that should reassure you that the risk of immunization compromising your sperm count is extremely low,’ said Dr. David Cohen, co-medical director of the Institute for Human Reproduction in Chicago, who was not involved in the study. Cohen was the co-author of a systematic review that found the novel coronavirus is not sexually transmitted.”

Let the pictures and the words be your guide to a child’s imagination.

You should always feel like a valuable partner in the process rather than like a number.
