Since the start of the latest coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) outbreak, the number of infected individuals and cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been increasing exponentially worldwide. Of interest is existing evidence that orchitis can develop due coronavirus infection. It is therefore not unreasonable to believe that SARS-CoV-2 could be transmitted by semen. Consequently, it is of paramount importance that individuals who could potentially be infected take all possible care to mitigate the likely risk of passing on the infection through sexual intercourse.
自最新一轮冠状病毒（SARS-CoV-2）爆发以来，全球感染人数和冠状病毒病（COVID-19）病例呈指数级增长。有趣的是，现有证据表明冠状病毒感染可导致睾丸炎。因此，有理由相信 SARS-CoV-2 可能通过精液传播。因此，对于那些可能感染的人来说，采取一切可能的措施来减轻通过性行为传播感染的可能性风险至关重要。
