Is it resistant to abstinence? Or how about faithfulness to one partner?

In the late 1960's when I was in college the Merck Manual(the doctor's cookbook) said syphylis required 100 million units of penicillin to treat. The last one said the dosage needed to be so high it could harm the host. The bugs are winning. The drugs are terrible.
Unfortunately the medical establishment and the CDC to promote the only 100% safe and effective method - prevention by abstinence. We seek to chase the problem instead of heading it off. It is so sad. the problems associated with sex outside of marriage are many - the solution is simple - avoid it and avoid the problems.

To those blaming this on the "Libberuls," "Obumma," "Occupation flea bags, " uhhhh yanno, this tough gonorrrhea strain thingie is happening mostly in the WESTERN states -- four states are blue and the rest RED. This sort of remind me of an article written in the year 2009 where study has found that the red states citizens consume the most online porn in the USA. The irony, eh?

Bolan writes in the medical journal that a vaccine to prevent gonorrhea "remains key to prevention and control," but that it is a "distant goal."
Wrong as usual -- the 'key' is abstinence until marriage. God's way is always the best way! But first we have remove all the draconian, misandrist legislation currently governing marriage, divorce and child custody...

Another reason big-pharma should be ashamed of itself, after making billions on erectile drugs and ignoring one of the obvious consequences.
