Man suffering from 'worst-ever' case of super-gonorrhea
A British man has contracted what health officials are calling the world's "worst-ever" case of super-gonorrhea.
The man, who was not identified, has a regular partner in the U.K., but was infected earlier this year during a sexual encounter with a woman in Southeast Asia, according to BBC News.
The main antibiotic treatment for the disease a combination of azithromycin and ceftriaxone failed to cure the infection, according to Public Health England. The two drugs were recommended in combination under new World Health Organization guidelines issued only last year.
"This is the first time a case has displayed such high-level resistance to both of these drugs and to most other commonly used antibiotics," said Public Health England's Dr. Gwenda Hughes.

This being the causation for his feeble mindedness. Prolonged exposure to gonorrhea and syphilis has severely impacted his thinking capacities.
His brain after an MRI scan would likely look similar to a big block of Swiss Cheese.

Once she got her golden ticket (Barron) I suspect she has not let him touch her. She seems like a pretty savvy girl so those who are crying for Melania ought to save their tears for someone who deserves them, like say, Barron. 😢 Poor kid will probably end up like his despicable half brothers but for now, he is just a poor little rich kid caught up in a sad, sordid tale.
