Thanks for ruining my Thursday lol. That's actually sobering af
I'm sure there are a ton of other factors that aren't being accounted for. Also I wonder how accurate the measure of sperm count really was during the 1970s. I imagine penis size would be something much easier to measure. I guess this kind of explains the recent rise of the BBC...
Not to brag or anything... but I got my wife pregnant with just one month of trying.... so speak for yourself Guardian!

tiny sample sizes and possibly skewed slection of patients. It's possible they only tested those with sever symptoms and its possible only those with severe symptoms have the issue.

wb the cellphone in your pocket emitting all sorts of radio frequencies. They should study that.
could be spurious correlation, maybe the with covid in their study already have other comorbidities that we already knew lead to infertility like insulin resistance, obesity, smoking, etc., this would make sense to me as the people most affected by covid have those comorbidities. like if an obese person who is insulin resistant because their diet is full of processed and added sugars has covid, it probably wasn't covid that hurt their sperm count, it was probably already damaged.

FD: I read the articles quickly, I don't read academic papers beyond the abstract since I'm not a scientist, so I could be 100% wrong
Agreed... It's definitely a concerning trend. Which is why I will never touch anything soy, nor will my children. Makes you soft and possibly sterile. I say leave it for the far-lefties, by doing this or excitedly declaring themselves/their kids trans and getting on hormones they're removing themselves from the gene pool. It's a trend that will run itself into the ground on its own if we just leave them to their own devices.
“Now, Swan says, following current projections, sperm counts are set to reach zero in 2045. “That’s a little concerning, to say the least,” she told Axios.”
Seems too dark to be real. Zero? The end of humanity as we know it?
lol c’mon bruh 😂😂😂
