With the scare over the novel coronavirus worldwide and the fact that there is, at least, one infected person in Lagos, the last thing you probably feel like doing now is to have intercourse with a spouse that is nursing a cold or flu and feeling feverish. But here’s a reason to have a rethink.
People, who have s*x one or two times a week, research says, actually produce more of the antibody that prevents illnesses, which boosts the immune system. Apart from the fact that s*x can arguably help you get over your illness, it is discovered to be a means of combating the dreadful Coronavirus.
So, if you are up for bumping and grinding and you don’t want to get your partner sick because you have a cold, one of the symptoms of the infection, you shouldn’t quarantine yourself from s*x. To avoid passing your germs back and forth endlessly, you need to only embrace some sex styles.
No doubt, colds and the flu are viral infections, so they’re transmitted via saliva and breath but sex experts say it is not enough to run away from s*x. According to them, at this time, while it is obvious that everyone is afraid to touch each other, partners are even stylishly avoiding themselves and the bed is becoming a taboo for lovers, couples should simply get smarter and engage in any ’bedmatics’ they can do in bed to lower contact between their mouths. This, they said, would prevent transmitting illness.

While certain face-to-face positions are off the table, (sorry, missionary style and kissing are out of the question) there are plenty of pleasure-producing moves you can still enjoy.
In short, once you’re sniffly but feeling horny, try one of these styles.
Side-by-side solo
Although this may sound odd to many but there really is no harm in trying it. Here, you just have to lie near your partner on a bed and play with yourselves. It has some sweet benefits.
You aren’t actually touching or exchanging fluids, so there’s little risk of spreading a cold. It can also be extremely hot to watch a partner play with their sexy parts while taking you in with their eyes. Besides, many people experience orgasm faster during solo play, which can be helpful when you’re turned on but lack energy.
Spooning
Getting it on back to front is one of the easiest ways to avoid the face-to-face connection. It is one method that has lovers faces turned away from each other completely. This position also allows for vaginal, anal penetration, or stimulation with hands or sex toys, so there’s no shortage of pleasure just as there won’t be any risk of contracting diseases.
Doggy style
Since there is no way you can see or breathe into each other’s faces with this style, it should come handy you when you’re under the weather. You can do it in a variety of positions like being on all fours with your head up so you don’t have to deal with a runny nose, on your knees with your head on the bed or pillow if you’re just totally wiped, or somewhere in between.
The scissors style
This particular style is simply good if the sick partner has no pains or feels fussy-headed. Both of you will just have your legs scissored open, intertwining them so that you push together at the pelvis.

This style positions your heads on opposite sides of the bed but allows you to reach out to hold hands in the middle, helping with pumping and grinding. The major plus of the scissors style is that your faces will be completely away from each other, putting the brakes on any germ swapping.
Reverse chair
Have your partner sit in a chair while you sit on top of them, facing away. It’s a perfect position for letting the person on top control the speed and intensity. If you’re feeling up for it, you can move vigorously, or you can go slower if your cold still has you down.
Planking on pillows
For those who don’t fancy the doggy style, this, I bet you, is an option. One of you will lie on the stomach on top of one or two pillows, with the weight resting gently on their forearms and their head poised up. The other partner will now make his way in from behind. Since both your heads are up, it’s less likely that runny noses will kill your sex drive, and since you’re facing away from each other, there’s less chance of microbes spreading.
Lotus position
This is for those still craving for a face-to-face connection. This time around, sit in a cross-legged hug, with one person on the other’s lap. Wrap your arms and legs around each other in a seated hug and get on with the day’s job. Since you aren’t poised mouth-to-mouth, there won’t be any spread of cold germs. It’s also one good position to explore when tired or weak.
Oral action
While this remains a no-go area for some men even on a normal day and gets riskier at periods of infections like cold and cough, know this that saliva on your private parts poses no risk. The sick lover only needs to relax and be at the receiving end.
