RNA viruses (eg, Zika, Ebola, HIV) are often shed in male genital secretions. We evaluated the presence and level of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in semen, nasal secretion, and saliva collected after confirmed infection. SARS-CoV-2 RNA was not detected in semen 6-17 days after the onset of symptoms despite concomitant shedding in oral secretions.
RNA病毒（如寨卡病毒、埃博拉病毒、艾滋病毒）通常会在男性生殖分泌物中排出。我们评估了确诊感染后采集的精液、鼻腔分泌物和唾液中SARS-CoV-2 RNA的存在情况及水平。尽管口腔分泌物中同时存在病毒排出，但在症状出现后6至17天的精液中未检测到SARS-CoV-2 RNA。
