First Antibiotic-Resistant Gonorrhea Cases Detected in North America

Completely incurable gonorrhea may be at hand

Gonorrhea infects close to 700,000 Americans each year.
The fears of major health organizations have come true: Gonorrhea that is immune to the last remaining effective oral antibiotic has been detected in at least nine North American patients, meaning the era of "incurable" gonorrhea could be close.

In a study released Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association, a group of scientists led by Vanessa Allen of Public Health Ontario, found that 6.7 percent of patients with gonorrhea at a Toronto clinic still had the disease after a round of cephalosporins, the last effective oral antibiotic used to treat the disease. Of 133 patients who returned for a "test of cure" visit, nine remained gonorrhea-positive. This is the first time cephalosporin-resistant gonorrhea has been found in humans in North America.


Last year, both the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control warned that untreatable gonorrhea

I love when people talk about the AIDS "epidemic" and how it effects us all.

No, it doesn't. Neither does this. Hahaha.

Re: Super Mutant American Gonorrhea

Funny, we still cure these with simple penicillines (amoxicilline, big ass dosis). just shows the negative effects to prescribing antibiotics as liberally as many of the nations mentioned in above article do.

Maar doodslaan deed hij niet, want tussen droom en daad,
Staan wetten in de weg en praktische bezwaren,
En ook weemoedigheid, die niemand kan verklaren,
En die des avonds komt, wanneer men slapen gaat.

They are already doing that with the nearly extinct pubic lice tongue.

Re: Super Mutant American Gonorrhea

Bacteria strains with the NDM-1 gene have started to turn up in the Western world more frequently as well. For those who do not know: New Dehli Metallo 1-enzym (NDM-1) is an enzym that is capable of neutralising many, if not all modern antibiotics; however some older antibiotics that have fallen out of use (Colistin and Tigecycline) seem to have some effect.

This enzym seems to originally have been formed in India and Pakistan, countries with very liberal use of antibiotics, promoting antibiotical resistance in bacteria strains. Antibiotics-resistant bacteria tend to thrive in hospitals and clinics, where antibiotics are used most commonly (for example: MRSA). Recently it was transferred to Western Europe and Greece/Turkey, probably through Western people getting cheap aesthetic/cosmetic surgery in Southern Asian countries such as India/Pakistan.

So Einstein, if you were still planning to get liposuction done in some cheap Asian country, don't do it!

The Doctor : "Davros, if you had created a virus in your laboratory. Something contagious and infectious that killed on contact. A virus that would destroy all other forms of life... would you allow its use?"

Davros : "It is an interesting conjecture."

The Doctor : "Would you do it?"

Davros : "The only living thing...the microscopic organism... reigning supreme... A fascinating idea."

The Doctor : "But would you do it?"

Davros : "Yes. Yes. To hold in my hand, a capsule that contained such power. To know that life and death on such a scale was my choice. To know that the tiny pressure on my thumb, enough to break the glass, would end everything. Yes. I would do it. That power would set me up above the gods. And through the Super Mutant American gonorrhea I shall have that power!"

Re: Super Mutant American Gonorrhea

I already did - the writing on the bathroom stall said "For a good time call Super Girl"... this might be the source of the super gonorrhea!
