Drs. James Hotaling, MD and Jingtao Guo, PhD published a manuscript in Fertility and Sterility examining semen from 34 patients with mild to moderate symptomatic COVID 19 infection. Using single cell RNA sequencing they found that coronavirus was not able to infect the testis and COVID 19 was unlikely to be sexually transmitted. The press release from University of Utah was picked up by over 100 news sources.
