Super-Clap: Ye Been Warned!

I think we’ll be seeing a LOT more things like this.

A team of researchers announced Monday it has discovered a completely new strain of gonorrhea that is resistant to all currently available antibiotics.

The strain of Neisseria gonorrhoeae was identified in a female sex worker in Japan and now, an international research team has dubbed the superbug H041. They say the strain could transform gonorrhea from what was once an easily treatable sexually transmitted infection into a serious public health threat.

Bugs by nature are evolutionarily driven to overcome antibiotics, and given that their life cycle is VERY short, they can get a LOT of trial and error out of the way in a short amount of time.

Needless to say if you’re having congress with a new partner wrap your damn hog. Also since this was first discovered in a prostitute in Japan if you know anybody stationed in Okinawa, or teaching English in Japan, make sure they know about this.
