The US Is Facing an 'Out of Control' STI Epidemic, Experts Warn

Not directly addressed in the article and I may not want to know the answer but curiosity compels me to ask why.

 

Relationship Between Multidrug-Resistant Enterobacterales and Obesity in Older Adults

There are studies out that show antibiotic resistance associated with Obesity. Same logic with COVID, your immunity is lessened with fatness, so it make sense that bacteria would take advantage. What I find interesting from the study is, direct quote: "obesity was independently associated with 1.92 times higher odds of gram-negative MDR bacteria on culture. The association of obesity and gram-negative MDR bacteria did not significantly vary by diabetes status."

So basically just being obese is associated with drug resistant bacteria, and since over 40% of the population is obese, we are living on borrowed time before these drugs will not work anymore.

 

Can we keep calling them STD's, for cripe's sake? Do half of all government employees have justifying their own existence with endless, stupid, meaningless acronym changes as their job description?

 

These aren't the right questions

 

It's like when you sign a bill to erase the words climate change

 

Is that a double entendre?

 

And pray she doesn't catch you.

 

Wtf… of course the problems of the world are premarital sex lol. Jfc… smdh.

 

Fun Fact: premarital sex isn’t a Biblical category.

 

I know plenty of folks that say he was exactly as advertised. Good guys are always subject to rumors.... Sadly.

 

IOW: "Why change my conclusions or opinions when I can just tweak my interpretation of certain facts so that my conclusion still works in my own mind?"

No matter how much you keep practicing, I don't think anyone issues gold medals for mental gymnastics.

 

My understanding is that the most risky sex is men having sex with men and after that, heterosexual sex. Lesbian sex seems to be the least risky. Yet another example of men being most of the problem.

 

They didn't, and hence he was still 'technically' a virgin.

 

So Timbow is from the Bill Clinton school of definition of sex.

 

Careful there doc! If we all did an honest cost/benefit analysis of our time spent on this board, the forum would be closed.

 

I like the way you think!

 

That was my point. I haven't seen much evidence on this board that new information ever makes you reconsider your conclusion. You are very good at shaving the corners of the square peg until you can fit it in your opinion's round hole.

You: "STDs are an epidemic, and gay men being allowed to marry is to blame."

Data shows that STD rates among homosexual males have been on the decline since gay marriage was protected via Obergfell.

You: "Ah, I see. Gay men being to blame for rising STD rates goes even beyond Obergfell. Clearly we should not have protected their sinful life choices."

 

You talkin' bout the sex or syphilis?
