The rate of new gonorrhea cases rose 4 percent in 2012 from the year before, while syphilis jumped 11 percent, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said today in a report. Rates for chlamydia, the most common of the bacterial sexually transmitted diseases, gained less than 1 percent.

This doesn't surprise me at all. The way he talked to his girlfriend when she found out she got a disease he said he did it with this one, and that one, and another one, and another one, and another one. For nearly 2 straight hours he was talking about how many women he had sex with. The bad part was that he was still in high school. I was like |

Now they have to worry also about this: Antibiotic-Resistant Gonorrhea The emergence of multidrug- and cephalosporin-resistant gonorrhea in the United States would make gonorrhea much more difficult to treat. [link to www.cdc.gov] Antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea not 'worse than AIDS,' experts say A recent CNBC article with the headline "Sex Superbug Could Be 'Worse Than AIDS'" quoted Alan Christianson, a naturopathic doctor, as saying that an antibiotic-resistant strain of the sexually transmitted disease gonorrhea "might be a lot worse than AIDS in the short run because the bacteria is more aggressive and will affect more people quickly." However, some experts called the comparison hyperbolic. "I disagree with the general comparison," said Dr. Bruce Hirsch, an attending physician in infectious diseases at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, N.Y. "The rate of complications from gonorrhea in terms of systemic problems is so much lower than the rate of complications from untreated AIDS infection," Hirsch said. The CNBC article says that this particular strain of gonorrhea "might put someone into septic shock and death in a matter of days." [link to www.foxnews.com] |
