The #gonorrhoea vaccine is an incredible breakthrough.
It could also be a terrible missed opportunity | Benjamin Weil

#Trump’s proposal slashes the #NIH #budget to $27B from ~$48B. The budget doc delivers a duplicitous rebuke to NIH, saying: “NIH has broken the trust of the American people w/wasteful spending, misleading information, risky research & the promotion of dangerous ideologies that undermine public health.” [written from Bizarro World]
The budget purports to refocus the #CDC on #infectious #diseases, but slashes funding for viral #hepatitis, #HIV & #STDs, lumping them into a single program at $300M.
Update. "#CDC's #STD Lab Shuttered by #Trump Layoffs"
https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/stds/115065
"A critical laboratory for surveilling sexually transmitted diseases (#STDs) in the US has been lost in the Trump administration's mass layoffs…One of its most remarkable projects is a one-of-its-kind repository of 50,000 isolates of gonorrhea used to monitor antibiotic resistance, which is quickly becoming a global health concern. The lab has been doing this work for nearly 40 years -- but will now, at best, have a gap in data."

How regularly do you get a full STD panel done?
(Not counting scares and emergencies.)
For the comments:
What does that battery of tests look like where you are?
Where I am, the standard set is HIV, Hepatitis B, syphilis, chlamydia, and gonorrhoea. The test is free for those aged under 26, 60% covered by the state for others (my insurance covered the rest).
I'm not having a lot of unscheduled encounters atm, so I get tests run when I'm about to see someone new or if it looks likely that I'll be seeing partners in different sexual bubbles.
At one point I used to get tested every three to six months. (Probably not often enough under the circumstances.)
I use condoms for protection and am vaccinated against hep B and hep C.
“Are there even this many Goonies?” – STDs Poster Lore
The Sexy Talented Dudes (STDs) had a Goonies-style poster… and yes, Chest Flexor, Chef Pump, and Billy Ruxpin were all there.
We still can’t believe someone framed it 😂

"The analysis confirms previous public health findings that #AbstinenceOnly education programs don't succeed in reducing rates of #TeenPregnancies or #STDs. Moreover, public health data indicate that such programs 'have little demonstrated efficacy in helping adolescents to delay intercourse,' the authors write."

HPV can affect and be transmitted by anyone, either with or without an uterus. Up to 35% of men would be infected during their lifetime, especially under 29. Vaccination is the only efficient protection against this potentially deadly virus, the condom isn't. 340 000 women die from it each year.
