Whether it's HIV/AIDS, gonorrhea, chlamydia or any number of sexually transmitted diseases, government health efforts to create a safe haven for sexual hedonism are losing ground. Even "the government experts" are recommending abstinence as the reliable cure.

. . . the ever-mutating gonorrhea bacterium is becoming resistant to the dwindling number of medicines used to fight it, and public health authorities are raising alarms about the emergence of an untreatable “superbug” that will reverse decades of progress in lowering infection and transmission rates around the globe.

Both infections also increase the chance of acquiring HIV in individuals exposed to the virus.
. . . Prevention may soon be our only defense against gonorrhea.
