Abstract:
:This article has shown that all the necessary components for successful control of gonorrhea are available. In developed countries, general improvements in economic conditions and advances in treatment and diagnosis have resulted in the lowest incidence rates of gonorrhea ever. Within these countries, however, control is failing, and gonorrhea is becoming hyperendemic among specific populations who tend to be disadvantaged and marginalized and who may have limited access to health care. Managing gonorrhea in individual patients and ensuring that their sexual partners receive appropriate treatment will contribute to reducing the transmission of infection in the community. Innovative school- and community-based interventions targeted to vulnerable populations will further help to reduce the incidence and contribute to improvements in the sexual health of the population.
