The COVID-19 pandemic and reproductive health

This introduction tees off an outstanding collection of Views and Reviews articles on the effects of the SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 on human reproductive health. These articles written by the experts in the field review the current literature on COVID-19 and male reproductive health, female reproductive health, and the assisted reproductive technology laboratory. Despite the prolonged nature of the pandemic and the number of people infected worldwide, there still are limited data on the effects of the virus and infection on human reproductive health and human fertility. The investigators distill a vast and often conflicting series of reports into a digestible summary to guide patient counseling and institute the safest practices into the assisted reproductive technology laboratory.
