“The data are clear: COVID-19 vaccination in male or female partners did not affect the likelihood of conception,” the White House Chief Medical Advisor said at a press conference, citing a study published this week in the American Journal Epidemiology.

Researchers examined 2,126 women in the US and Canada between December 2020 and September 2021 — before and after they got vaccinated — and found the jabs had no impact on babymaking.

But couples were temporarily 18 percent less likely to conceive if the male partner had been infected with [COVID] within 60 days of trying, according to the study.

“COVID-19 disease temporarily reduced male fertility,” Fauci said.
