Abstrak

Wabah Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) yang meluas menimbulkan banyak pertanyaan tentang asal dan penularan virus. Telah terbukti bahwa penularan Covid-19 dapat melalui droplet, kontak fisik dan aerosol. Beberapa kemungkinan cara penularan lainnya sedang ditelusuri. Temuan severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) dan angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) di berbagai organ reproduksi laki-laki dan perempuan menimbulkan dugaan kemungkinan penularan Covid-19 melalui kontak seksual. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk meninjau literatur yang ada mengenai kemungkinan cara penularan Covid-19, terutama melalui kontak seksual; untuk menambah pemahaman tentang penyebab dan penyebaran SARS-CoV-2, serta cara mencegah penyebarannya. Tinjauan kemungkinan cara penularan Covid-19 dilakukan dengan penelusuran artikel melalui PubMed dan ScienceDirect.com menggunakan kata kunci: ‘penularan’, ‘kontak seksual’, ‘Coronavirus’, ‘SARS-CoV-2’, dan ‘Covid-19’. Berbagai penelitian menunjukkan hasil yang berbeda mengenai keberadaan SARS-CoV-2 di organ reproduksi laki-laki maupun perempuan. Beberapa penelitian menemukan SARS-CoV-2 di dalam ginjal, anus, semen, dan cairan vagina, namun tidak ditemukan oleh sebagian peneliti. Demikian juga dengan keberadaan reseptor ACE2 di organ reproduksi yang masih kontroversial. Penelitian jangka panjang masih dibutuhkan untuk menyimpulkan Covid-19 dapat ditularkan melalui kontak seksual atau tidak. Para ahli menganjurkan bagi pasien Covid-19 untuk menunda kontak erat, termasuk kontak seksual, selalu menjaga kebersihan pribadi dan lingkungan, serta mematuhi protokol kesehatan.
