Covid, ED, & Vaccine - Opinions

[Old Guy]

And months later we have seen the effects of COVID. It hasn't ended, the virus has mutated because some people won't get vaccinated. As far as getting vaccinated I've had both Moderna shots, then the booster. Since I was already implanted no comment if the vaccine progresses ED. But I imagine some have posted that to social media, making others think it's true right? Another reason for some to not get the vaccine. Like already said, even with ED you're still alive and that's what I'd prefer.

I wear a mask in public all the time. Why? Because who knows if that person next to you is vaccinated, or a carrier?
What I find as false information is if you're healthy you won't catch it. That is pure BS. Know three fellows all in their mid-20's who attended a party. All in good health. All three came down with COVID after the party. One was sick for a few days, one ended up in ICU for two weeks with all the tubes sticking in him, the third guy died after weeks of fighting it. Then there have been some 80 & 90 year olds who have survived it. That proves this virus ain't picky, it'll take whoever it wants.
Stay safe everyone.

I have seen all the news articles about Covid being bad for the penis. However, I have also heard anecdotally about a small (but not insignificant) number of young men (<40) who have gotten ED from the vaccine. I am 38, and I took the first pfizer shot a couple months ago. My ED immediately got noticeably worse. It has not improved much since then. I am someone who has medically induced ED.

I suspect that men (particularly men 40 and under) who have found themselves to be sensitive to side-effects from RX drugs in the past that have caused them ED (SSRI, finesteride, Accutane) are at a much higher risk of having their ED affected by the mnRa vaccines.

Most men on this site seem to be in their 60's and 70's+ and have age-related ED, I am not directing this message at you.

Correlation is not causation. Just because a man gets vaccinated and also gets ED does not mean he got ED from the vaccination. Millions of men were going to get ED this year anyways. Since those millions of men also are getting vaccinated this year, how many of them are going to blame the vaccination for causing the ED they were going to develop anyway?

The virus has mutated because it's a virus, that's what they do. Anti-vaxxers aren't to blame, in spite of how ignorant and stupid they are.

My biggest issue with the pandemic in the UK has been the stoppage of cancer treatments across all age ranges to treat COVID patients - many of which are at an age range or with a pre-existing condition where they're on their last legs anyway. Disgusting.

I am fully jabbed but I rarely wear masks and my view is that we need to get on with life and ensure there is a world worth going back to. Someone replied to my saying this the other day with "well, what if you get covid and die?" To which I said "Then I get COVID and die".

I am saying this has been my personal experience. I have also heard about this anecdotally online. I know my own body. In my experience, my ED got immediately worse when I took the vaccine. Maybe it's just a coincidence and that on that exact day and at that exact moment, it was going to get noticeably worse, completely independent of whether or not I took a dose of pfizer mnra vaccine that morning. I don't come to franktalk to make shit up about health problems that I'm not actually having, I am speaking the truth as I experienced it.

Not to create grounds for debate, Unlike some people I think steamfitter has a a right to opinion based on his own experiences. I too have had the phizer and noticed a diminished response to my ici a few days after the second and also diminshed libido. Perhaps not direct organic response to vaccine but the results are the same. Neuralogic, psycholical, circulatory, or any number of failures in the complex chain of events for erection. If you had no negative effects count yourself lucky but do not criticize another person if they did. It is quite offensive and arrogant for someone to force your opinion on others to justify some insecurities. Have a nice day.
