There is no evidence that COVID-19 vaccination causes male fertility issues, fact-checkers and medical experts say

There is no evidence of links between COVID-19 and male infertility, according to medical experts and fact-checkers. Dr Sanjeeva Srivastavam, professor at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, and the co-author of the recently published study which examined the effects of COVID-19 on male fertility said, “we did not claim that our study is related to the vaccine or its effect". According to AP, there is some evidence that the COVID-19 infection period may temporarily affect semen production.
