Scientists Ominously Warn COVID Is Reducing Fertility

2021-02-04

[Summit] Just when you thought the future couldn’t get much more dystopian, scientists have issued more stark warnings that COVID-19 is reducing fertility in men, and could contribute to depopulation of the planet.

Scientists say that there is increasing evidence in patients of testicular damage and lower sperm counts and mobility, with initial studies revealing the presence of the virus in semen samples.

Researchers at the Justus-Liebig-University in Germany. along with scientists from Allameh Tabataba’i University in Iran have reported significant inflammation markers in samples of testicular tissue from 84 Covid-19 patients.

They discovered that the inflammation and cellular stress were twice as severe in the Covid-19 positive group as in a control group.

Researchers also noted that sperm was three times slower in COVID patients, and sperm count in general was much lower.

The study found that sperm concentration was reduced by 516 per cent, mobility by 209 per cent and sperm cell shape was altered by 400 per cent.

#8 The vaccine itself has been cause of infertility. The Gates global reset so to speak. Curious they twist this tale down the road as they have now.

#7 Scientist #1 - 'Damn, that multiple mask thing from last week didn't work; what do we have this week?'

Scientist #2 - 'How about 'Covid reduces your sperm count' ?'

Scientist #3 - 'Brilliant!'

Scientist #4 - 'I'll come up with something for next week!'

#6 From the 2007 link at #4: Pesticides, hormone-disrupting chemicals, diet, stress, smoking and obesity have all been suggested as possible reasons behind the dramatic declines but experts say more research is urgently needed.

So now we have it: More research - showing it was due to COVID all along! I'm sure global warming is also a factor...

#5 But a doctor came on the teevee last night to debunk some vaccination myths, including the one about 'no more children'.

#3 Fertility Gods Make a Return !

Testicles on a Goddess of Fertility - Ephesian Artemis
Our guide in the Vatican Museum said this ancient goddess of fertility is decorated with bull testicles.

The following is from Wikipedia:
Ephesian Artemis

From the Greek point of view Ephesian Artemis is a distinctive form of their goddess Artemis. In Greek cult and myth, Artemis is the twin of Apollo, a virgin huntress who supplanted the Titan Selene as goddess of the Moon. At Ephesus, a goddess whom the Greeks associated with Artemis was venerated in an archaic, certainly pre-Hellenic cult image that was carved of wood and kept decorated with jewelry.

Could this alledged 'Second-Order Effect' actually be the primary goal of the virus' development ?
