While kissing should be avoided, it also warned against\u00a0oral-to-anal acts\u00a0because\u00a0anything\u00a0that involves spit and human stool\u00a0could lead to virus spreading.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Until this is clarified, urine should also be considered potentially infectious. SARS-CoV-2 RNA has been detected in stool samples, raising concern for fecal\u2013oral transmission (7). It is not clear, however, whether viral RNA detected in stool is capable of causing productive infection. Moreover, these data are moot, given that any in-person contact results in substantial risk for disease transmission owing to the virus&#8217; stability on common surfaces and propensity to propagate in the oropharynx and respiratory tract,&#8221; researchers said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Sex between people who&#8217;ve isolated together still presents some risk, though it&#8217;s much safer than someone who has been out of quarantine. The researchers said the safest approach to sexual activity in a pandemic is to practice abstinence. Another option, they said, is masturbation.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Masturbation is an additional safe recommendation for patients to meet their sexual needs without the risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection,&#8221; they said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>At a time when\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/economics\/track-japan-us-birth-rate-hits-35-year-low-corona-pessimism-could-ensure-permanent\">US births are hitting three-decade lows<\/a>,\u00a0academic elites are scaring people from having sex.
