What do men and dogs have in common. Now we know it's more than warm blood and tongues. Am with you on too much, in many areas sometimes experts and all go to far. I'll never think the covid shutdowns were too far, still it happens. like conspiracy people often do. One never knows though, Australia may one day be playing catch-up with you guys on this one. The possible connection between plastics and male fertility could turn out to be something serious. Then again there's one possible population controlling factor in there. Anywhoooo, an excerpt from yours:

When he set out to do the study, Yu didn't expect microplastics would have penetrated the male reproductive system so extensively, given the tight blood-tissue barrier around those organs. To his surprise, the research team unearthed a wide range and heavy concentration of microplastics in the testicles of about two dozen men and close to 50 dogs.

The results may also be relevant to a well-documented global decline in sperm count and other problems related to male fertility. This trend has been linked to a host of environmental and lifestyle factors, including certain endocrine-disrupting chemicals found in plastics.

The growing numbers of studies like this one are "compelling and should be a wake up call for policymakers," says Tracey Woodruff, director of the Environmental Research and Translation for Health Center at the University of California, San Francisco.
How much and what kind of plastics were in the testicles?
