“Every year an estimated 700,000 people in the United States and 50 million worldwide acquire gonorrhea. While the disease is curable with antibiotics, only one drug is now recommended for treatment because the disease developed resistance to previously used antibiotic options over the past four decades.”

...and considering that the drug makers have pretty much thrown in the towel, once Gonorrhea gets resistance to this last drug, look for it to make a surging comeback here.

...and maybe that will slow down our free-love culture, at least somewhat. So not necessarily all bad news.

"our free-love culture"

As Uncle Milty would have said:

There's no such thing as a free hook-up.

You mean like the way AIDs has slowed down the gay "free love" culture. Oh,wait.

It would be nice to think that people would start to wise up; but, I think they would just whine a lot and insist somebody come up with a cure.
