"the relationship is just a correlation, and it might be that some of the comorbidities that increased the men's chances of getting a significant COVID-19 infection may have also independently increased their chances of erectile dysfunction."

Makes sense, given that blood flow issues are pretty common with Covid infections/post-infection symptoms. This also explains the reverse correlation (though with existing blood flow issues are more vulnerable to Covid messing them up further).

Sure, it could just be a coincidence that this correlation has emerged, despite there being a plausible mechanism for a causal relationship. Is that really a risk you want to take, though?

What risk? I'm in the zero risk group for both ED and a serious covid infection.

Also, correlation is not causation, as you so frequently stated when I posted a study with 30 years of data showing a greater than 95% correlation between the consumption of glyphosate-laden Monsanto GMO foods and the strong increase in autoimmune diseases in the US. So why risk eating Monsanto foods?

But this 1 year study is definitive...lulz

The only zero-risk group for ED is women. There is no zero-risk group for Covid.

So why risk eating Monsanto foods?

I don't recall you ever posting such a study, nor do I recall responding that way, nor would I expect to respond that way because I agree that Monsanto is generally a horrible company that can't be trusted with anything (though there's nothing wrong with GMO's as a concept, just the potential for harm and a bunch of super-sketchy companies that are fine with causing it), unless you're grossly misrepresenting the study in question, so... [Citation needed].

Moreover, while the mere presence of a correlation doesn't indicate causation, that also doesn't mean a casual relationship should be ruled out entirely, especially not when the correlation in question does meet several of the necessary criteria for causation. Most notably, there's a plausible mechanism here for Covid infection to increase the risk of ED, so a causal relationship is plausible. That doesn't guarantee that it's there, and further study is obviously warranted before declaring anything conclusive, but treating it as a non-zero risk is pretty reasonable (especially where everyone should be trying to avoid catching Covid anyway and this is just one more reason).

Guessing he's an anti-vaxxer? Or he has nothing to lose, if you catch my drift.

He is, which is pretty unfortunate for the child he and his wife will have soon.

Are we sure the anti-mask/anti-vaccine people weren't already disproportionately suffering from erectile dysfunction?

I had a really bad sinus infection back in november. I've had a cough that hasn't gone away since. I think I might have had covid then. Also since then I'm had to uh tend to myself like 5-6 times a day. I've got like the opposite of ed.

That's anecdotal. Only carefully curated scientific evidence shall be accepted. /s
