    Does the article need a picture of someone. Is he the gonorrhoea poster boy?

      The way I see it: if we can get rid of a disease, then why the hell not? Is gonorrhea doing anything for us by swimming through the population?

      This probably won’t eliminate it, the efficacy is below 80%, but this will knock it down a peg or two, and it uses an existing vaccine, which saves money :)

        That might actually be enough to drive the disease out of existence .

        That is, of course, if religious backward countries would implement this too, but the US won’t, for sure, because they won’t allow people sexual freedom again soon.
