I heard Dr. Fauci on the radio today state he disagrees with the comparison of the health impact of the drug resistant gonorrhea to AIDS and says it is misleading.

I posted this to Reddit:
http://www.reddit.com/r/hivaids/comments/1dhoc0/drug_resistant_gonorrhea_has_the_potential_to_be/

So far the only response I got was:
"I think I'll pass on this until we see something that isn't from the DailyMail. It's really a sensational rag."

Come on, this is scary stuff.
But wouldn't so called Big Pharma be motived, now, to develop that new class of treatments.  I mean, people are gonna fuck without condoms.  So people will be willing to pay through the nose for a decent treatment.

What is the hold-up on new classes of antibiotics.  Have we finally arrived at the limit of what these molecules can do?  Is there no other idea of some way besides antibiotics?

It's such a pretty pink isn't it!, I wonder if we can get some fabric with the same pattern, I could make you a lovely T-Shirt from it.

My case of gonorrhea came from a porn star in 1998.

The first time I got the clap, I was a closet case college sophomore. The college infirmary's nurse practitioner looked and acted like Bea Arthur. Quizzed by Nurse Maude on the contact, I made up some cockamamie story about a "girl", "downtown", and the nurse wasn't having it, and named her "Sioux City Sue".

I do fear that super bugs will be a major challenge for everyone, soon enough.  Might not be the superclap.  Maybe those flesh-eating staph bugs.  Maybe the bugs that come in our meat supply, and resistant to all antibiotics.

My best bud Tim and I met in 3 rd grade , he is gay as well and we came out at the same time , had our first apartment together . We also share our favorite clap story .

We were both summoned to the health dept because somebody listed us both as a sexual contact . Its turns out we didn't have the clap but we did meet two guys and went on a date that night with them . We decided we didn't like them and they eventually didn't like us either because we referred to them at the bars as the gonorrhea guys and health dept hotties .

Oh, and get this -- I was the top even though the porn guy always topped in his videos. Go and figure. And it wasn't a cheap trick -- we actually went out for a nice dinner then went dancing.

There seems to be a floral fabric that is taste resistant, transmission risks high in charity balls the world over:

No actually big pharma would not be motivated at all when it comes to antibiotics. Why bother investing so much into research and development when resistance frequently occurs and your drug becomes useless. Scary shit indeed!

As my godmother used to say:  "Honeybun, that pattern is a bit too busy to wear for gym shorts to play basketball.  You are a brave one, though!"
