DOI: 10.1071/sh19060
Abstract: Efforts to develop vaccines against Neisseria gonorrhoeae have become increasingly important, given the rising threat of gonococcal antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Recent data suggest vaccines for gonorrhoea are biologically feasible; in particular, epidemiological evidence shows that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/olq.0000000000001068
Abstract: BACKGROUND There have been very limited studies of oropharyngeal gonorrhoea in heterosexuals. Routine screening of oropharyngeal gonorrhoea is not recommended in heterosexual contacts of gonorrhoea. The study aimed to examine oropharyngeal gonorrhoea positivity among heterosexuals… read more here.
