Since your ass couldn't get laid in a mattress factory, I'll bet you will live forever.

Nice logic there, BTW. I remember when the prevailing notion was that "you won't get AIDS (because this was before we linked it with HIV) unless you are gay".

Dumb fucks like you lead to epidemics. Maybe the solution is to purge the world of dullards like you?

The major problem with that is that the hospitals that do the "reporting" are typically academic institutes that serve lower socioeconomic demographics.

There are a lot of doctors out there in the more affluent communities that will simply presumptively treat the clap and chlamydia based on reported symptoms alone and never get a culture.

Not that I'd expect you to have the ability to think about something like that.

Black Death strain still around, but less deadly: study
Wed, Aug 31, 2011 - A much less virulent version of the Black Death bacterium that killed one-third of Europe’s population in the 14th century is still present today, according to a study published yesterday.
DNA testing on the skeletons of plague victims unearthed in a medieval London mass grave reveals part of the same gene sequence as the modern bubonic plague, despite its different attributes. “At least this part of the genetic information has barely changed in the past 600 years,” says Johannes Krause, one of the authors of the study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). “Without a doubt, the plague pathogen known today as [Yersinia] pestis was also the cause of the plague in the Middle Ages,” he added.

The Black Death claimed the lives of one-third of Europe’s population in just five years from 1348 to 1353, but modern outbreaks have been far less deadly, even given advances in medicine. An outbreak in Mumbai, India, in 1904, for example, killed just 3 percent of the population despite the fact that it happened before the advent of antibiotics. For the study, undertaken by the University of Tubingen’s Institute of Scientific Archeology in Germany and the McMaster University in Canada, researchers extracted DNA from 109 skeletons from a mass burial site in London.

By comparing the DNA to that of 10 skeletons excavated from a site pre-dating the Black Death, the researchers were able to prove that it had not been contaminated by modern genetic material or bacteria in the soil. The authors argue the version of the disease that caused the medieval plague is likely extinct, but suggest that further study could reveal how it may have evolved into a less virulent strain.

An alarming new superbug may be on its way — an incurable form of gonorrhea. The disease, once easily killed with a shot of penicillin, is increasingly becoming drug-resistant. Soon, the world may face a version that can’t be killed by any known antibiotic, warned Catherine Ison, the director of the sexually transmitted bacteria reference library with the United Kingdom’s Health Protection Agency.

In recent years, as the disease has evolved, medications once proven to kill the bacteria have become less effective except one, a class of antibiotics called cephalosporins. Now some strains of gonorrhea are showing signs of being resistant to even that, Ison told those at a scientific meeting last week in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Gonorrhea, is the second most commonly reported infectious disease in the United States. In 2008, there were 336,742 official cases, but this number, the most recent available from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, may vastly underestimate the true number.

“We will probably have something like 700,000 cases of gonorrhea this year,” suggested Dr. Edward W. Hook, professor of medicine at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and an expert on STD infections.

Not all of those who are infected know it, contributing to the problem. Undiagnosed cases, or infections that are unsuccessfully treated and then linger without obvious symptoms, can create serious health problems. For example, teenage girls between 15 and 19 account for more cases than any other age group. If they aren’t cured, they risk pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility or ectopic pregnancies. People infected with gonorrhea are also about three times more likely to become infected with HIV should they come into contact with the virus

This may not have happened so soon (or ever) if there was less over-prescribing of antibiotics and more compliance of patients taking antibiotics.

The number of resistant bacteria strains is growing rapidly.

I am informed that the vast majority of antibiotic resident bugs that are developing are really caused by the enormous amounts of antibiotics we're putting into our cattle, sheep, and pigs.

There are still Yersinia breakouts in this country. I think in the four corners region and affecting groundhogs.

Whether it's a less virulent bug or not, who knows. It's easily treated with tetracycline.

Logically, it would make sense that any bug or virus would evolve to become less virulent. It is not an evolutionary advantage to kill your host.

What is the most successful virus in history? The common cold.

Gonorrhea could previously be cured by one shot of penicillin? Not sure about that. Three or four shots of penicillin was more like it.

Gonorrhea is currently cured by one shot of recephin (ceftriaxone) a third generation cephalosporin. If Penicillin didn't work as well, it was most likely because gonorrhea is gram negative and penicillin works best against gram positive.
