Some notes:
1) The vast majority of cases so far are among blacks.
2) Chlamydia is still the most prevalent VD. Both it and gonorrhea can cause harm to a fetus.
3) Often gonorrhea can cause sterility in men and women.
4) Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) has an old nickname used in ER’s and hospitals: “Pink In Dere”.
