RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – The new normalcy also concerns sex. Yes, because several experts have issued a number of recommendations for people to enjoy sexual intercourse without risking contracting the novel coronavirus, which causes Covid-19, according to an article published in the Spanish website Nueva Mujer.
According to the Public Health Agency of Barcelona (ASPB), in Spain, practicing sex in an open, large, and well-ventilated area is one of the basic measures that couples should adopt.
Moreover, the health agency suggests that it is safer to adopt other personal satisfaction routines, such as masturbation, watching pornography, or ‘sexting’ (exchanging erotic written messages).
Similarly, the ASPB states that it is best to “have sex as little as possible, particularly with people you don’t live with.”
And yet, those who decide to venture should take extreme measures to reduce the risk of contagion and become sick with Covid-19, such as “taking a shower or washing their hands with soap and water at least 20 seconds before and after sex.”
