Will other study results be more positive or do we need a better vaccine?

This is a bit like when doctors go public about @realdonaldtrump.govmirrors.com ‘s treatments for #syphilis & #gonorrhea… OOPS❗️ Was I not supposed to mention that ⁉️

Did you know that STIs are very common? On any given day, 1 in 5 people in the U.S. has an STI. STIs often have no symptoms. #STI #Syphilis #STIprevention #chlamydia #gonorrhea #STItesting

Two new drugs give clinicians hope against gonorrhea The quest to contain gonorrhea has been a decades-long struggle, but there is hope on the horizon in the form of new medications, clinicians said.In December, the FDA approved the first two new antibiotics for gonorrhea in nearly 40 years: Blujepa (gepotidacin, GSK) and Nuzolvence (zoliflodacin, Innoviva Specialty Therapeutics). With these, clinicians look to take the upper hand on a pathogen —

🚨Approvals of #gepotidacin and #zoliflodacin come at a vital juncture, with #gonorrhea building resistance to other antibiotics. “There’s great hope and enthusiasm in the STI community for these new treatment options,” says a prominent physician .

Did someone say #Gonorrhea 🤔

Exciting research here on the development and lab evaluation of #CRISPR #POC tests for #STIs (chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HSV 1 /2)

Also very interesting they could detect S91F to predict cipro resistance in #gonorrhea

POC tests for STIs can be game-changers in many settings

🚨Armed with #gepotidacin and #zoliflodacin, clinicians now look to take the upper hand on #gonorrhea, which has ducked and dodged nearly every antibiotic used for treatment.

DYK 3 of 4 surgeons in 19thC London depended on treating STIs? To cure #gonorrhea in a man, they syringed his urethra w/various liquids & let him have sex w/his wife again when the liquid flushed out clear. As soon as he could pee & had washed off his penis, he was good to go.

The #GoGoVax 🇦🇺 trial of the #menB vaccine against #gonorrhea among men observed no effectiveness.

Results obviously disappointing, as we need more tools to prevent gonococcal infections, esp as #AMR rises. Some hope for #MAGI study 🙏🏽
