Okay, I know that its not cannon, but there is a mention of a ghoul having
a ghoul son in the novel Psychotrope. I don't really remember anything
about ghouls being made sterile by the virus, but that could be true. It
also depends on when it happens in the infection stage, whether the person
is a carrier at the time or is going into full-blown ghoul state.
