There's a guy in England who was just diagnosed with the, quote, "world's worst" case of gonorrhea. His doctors say there's never been a strain that's SO GOOD at resisting antibiotics and every other drug and treatment they throw at it.
The guy believes he got it after he had sex with a woman in Southeast Asia. Yep, that adds up.
The really scary thing here, of course, is that if doctors can't find a way to treat it, it means that gonorrhea has finally found a way to mutate into invincibility.
And that would take it from being a treatable STD to an untreatable one. And it's one that can cause serious pain, infertility, and pelvic inflammatory disease.
