China's Looming Threat: The Rise of Super Gonorrhea

The bacteria causing gonorrhea have shown high resistance to multiple antibiotics, posing a growing global public health threat. Urgent action and international collaboration are needed to address the spread of antibiotic-resistant strains and identify alternative treatment options for gonorrhea.
