There is now a gonorrhea superbug and we can't get rid of it

Here’s harrowing news for the sexually active: sexually transmitted diseases are getting out of control.

In its annual STD Surveillance Report, the Center for Disease Control saw a record increase in the number of infections of three sexually transmitted diseases in the U.S. -- chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis.

Syphilis, in particular, is seeing massive outbreaks in places like Fresno, CA, where the disease was almost nonexistent six years ago, according to The Fresno Bee.

In July, the World Health Organization issued a warning about the global rise of drug-resistant gonorrhea.

That’s the one that produces a burning sensation and a white, yellow or green discharge in men. There were 470,000 gonorrhea cases reported in the U.S. last year, FYI.

Typically, the disease can be treated with one of several antibiotics, but the WHO is now seeing strains that have evolved to resist most commons antibiotics, NBC reports. A few are almost completely untreatable.

LOL....Absolutely doesn’t matter where the orfice is at, it matters if the input is contaminated! Body fluid is body fluid.....

My advice is use wisdom and obey God to stay pure and untouched by the varmits, who have no intention to do so, or don’t believe in God! :)

Well the ‘free sexual revolution’ group from 1960-70s would be Seniors now! So not surprised the commune attitude still lives! Beware those over 55 complexes that have lots of events (sarc)

what a surprise....can’t say the people were not informed though....very sad, but good for the pharmaceutical industry, doctors, nurses, hospitals, counselors, social workers, government health care groupies...and anyone else who gains money trying to cure the self acquired disease-caused misery of others...

Good thing I do not have to worry about this as I am not sexually active....I just wish it was my own idea however.

That gets pretty difficult if the carriers are part of the queer subculture (and they most likely are) where orgies involving dozens of strangers is common.
