Drug-resistant gut infection spreading among gay men in UK, US, Australia
Original: A drug-resistant “sex bug” causing explosive diarrhoea is spreading among gay men in the UK, US and Australia. Over 70%
Health researchers are warning about a drug-resistant intestinal infection, described as a sexually transmitted 'sex bug', that causes severe diarrhoea and is spreading among gay men in the UK, US and Australia. A Cambridge study found over 70% of sexually transmitted strains resisted at least one antibiotic, leaving clinicians with very few treatment options.
Why now: The Cambridge findings on widespread antibiotic resistance raise alarm about a hard-to-treat sexually transmitted infection spreading across several countries.
