Communicable Episode 19: ‘Super gonorrhoea’ & other sexually transmitted infections

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) affect millions globally daily, and multidrug-resistant strains are complicating treatment. Hosts Angela Huttner and Josh Davis welcome experts Teodora Elvira Wi and Catriona Bradshaw to discuss critical issues surrounding ‘super gonorrhoea’ (i.e. multidrug resistant infections), chlamydia, syphilis, Mycoplasma genitalium, and bacterial vaginosis. The episode reviews the latest epidemiology including some hot off the press practice-changing clinical trial data as well as highlights the need to innovate diagnostics and treatment options, destigmatise STIs, and promote people-centred healthcare strategies to manage and prevent these infections.
