These are two important breakthroughs in the fight against bacterial infections, but significantly more development of antibiotics will be needed in the future to fully address the underlying problem of antimicrobial resistance. (4/4)

#FDA has approved a new 1st-in-class oral antibiotic for the treatment of #gonorrhea, which has been making its way through the armamentarium of available antibiotics. Nuzolvence was brought to market through a private-public partnership involving @gardp.bsky.social. https://www.statnews.com/2025/12/12/fda-approves-zoliflodacin-gonorrhea-pill-marketed-as-nuzolvence/

The sexually transmitted disease #gonorrhea is becoming increasingly resistant to antibiotics. Countries need to 🛡️ Strengthen surveillance 🔬 Improve diagnostic capacity 💊 Ensure equitable access to new treatments for sexually transmitted infections https://bit.ly/3XAo8we

#A I-designed compounds can kill #drugresistant #bacteria
#MIT team used #artificialintelligence to design novel #antibiotics, two of which showed promise against #MRSA and #gonorrhea
Drugs are structurally distinct from any existing antibiotics, and appear to work by novel mechanisms that disrupt bacterial cell membranes. This makes them less vulnerable to antibiotic resistance, a growing problem: estimated drug-­resistant bacterial infections cause nearly 5M deaths/yr.

AI develops new antibiotics for treating gonorrhea and MRSA.

I had hoped that one of the specialists would write about this work, but it was undeservedly overlooked. So, I'll tell you about it myself. Learn more: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cgr94xxye2lo

The main challenge turned out to be not the discovery, but the complexity of production. Out of the 80 most promising candidates against gonorrhea highlighted by the neural network, only two compounds could be synthesized. The rest are either too complex to obtain or require technologies we don't yet possess.

Customer: Waiter!

Waiter: Yes?

C: What is this?

W: Oh, [whispering] that's gonorrhea. It's on the house.

C: GONORRHEA?

W: Not so loud! Other customers will hear you and want some too!

Other Customer A: Hey, how come this person got gonorrhea in their soup?

Other Customer B: Gonorrhea? Ew!

OCA: He got it for free!

OCB: Free?! Hey, I want my free gonorrhea!

OCA: Me too!

W: See what you've done?

C: Me? I did not do anything! It's your chef. They didn't use protection when they made this soup.

Treatment of gonorrhea

To eliminate gonorrhea, the following drugs are used: Tetracycline; Streptomycin; Rifampicin; Erythromycin; Penicillin.

We've known for a while that the Bexsero brand #meningitis B vaccine provides limited (30-40%) protection against #gonorrhea, too. Now the UK has approved the #vaccine to be used against the #STI, offering it to men who have sex with men.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cded26z16leo

If you're in the US and considering a meningitis vaccine for yourself or your teenage child, note that Bexsero helps prevent gonorrhea but Trumenba, the other brand available, does not.

Hard to make sense of a lot of the cuts that are happening at #HHS & its agencies. But closing #CDC's STD laboratory at a time when #gonorrhea seems poised to develop resistance to the last reliable drug that can cure it has experts aghast and worried. https://www.statnews.com/2025/04/05/cdc-sexually-transmitted-diseases-laboratory-closed-by-trump-administration/

Pass. I don't want to catch foot & mouth disease. Hell, #Elon looks like he's not only carrying around that disease but a fuck-load of #STIs as well. Dude's brain is probably riddled with #gonorrhea which is why he acts so batshit crazy insane.

A Daily Pill to Prevent #STI? It May Work, Scientists Say.
A common #antibiotic, #doxycycline, greatly reduced cases of #syphilis, #gonorrhea and #chlamydia when taken every day.
Their study was small and must be confirmed by more research. Scientists still have to resolve significant questions, including whether #STD might become resistant to the antibiotic and what effect it could have on healthy gut bacteria in people taking it every day.

#China has a big #STD problem with #supergonorrhea, study finds
#DrugResistant #gonorrhea is a growing problem—one that doesn't heed borders
Study surveyed gonorrhea—Neisseria gonorrhoeae—from around China and found prevalence of #ceftriaxone-resistant isolates nearly tripled between 2017 and 2021. Ceftriaxone-resistant strains made up roughly 8% of the nearly 3,000 bacterial isolates collected from gonorrhea infections in 2022. That's up from just under 3% in 2017.

TIL that #ASUS's #AiMesh system is crap. (Actually, that was yesterday.)

See... I have a problem. My walls are thick. My building was build circa-ish WWII. When I work in my office, the signal is degraded.

Note that all of this would be solved if my apartment were properly wired to bring the Internet to the office and the living room... but one can only dream. :hide_the_pain_harold:

So I figured I'd just whip out a new node and set my router to use AiMesh.

I did this, and nothing connects to the new node.

:headache:

I change this setting and that setting, and nothing wants to connect to the new node.

I have a Google Mini sitting literally feet away from the new node, and it is like the fucking new node has gonorrhea or something.

"Haha! You idiot! Everybody knows that AiMesh cannot work! Lolfart!"

But it did work! At the marital house that I shared with my ex-wife. We had a central fireplace with chimney that completely messed up the Wi-Fi. I just installed a new node to the mesh and it worked.

So glad to see someone making use of 4CMenB to give limited protection against gonorrhea. I have access to two meningitis B vaccines, Trumenba and Bexsero. Since only Bexero has been shown to give this extra protection, it's the one I recommend.

What is DoxyPEP and should more queer men use it to protect their health?

From the article - "DoxyPEP is short for Doxycycline Post-Exposure Prophylaxis. It means taking the antibiotic doxycycline after a sexual encounter to minimize the chances of acquiring an STI such as gonorrhea or syphilis. Doctors are exploring it as one way to tackle the soaring STI rates in the US.

"A study last year found that when used within three days after unprotected sex, doxycycline reduces STIs by more than 60% in gay men."
