Drug-resistant Shigella spreads in the US, raising STI concerns
Original: sexually transmitted diarrhea disease
US health officials are tracking a rise in extensively drug-resistant Shigella, with resistant strains now making up 8.5% of cases. The bacterial infection, which causes severe diarrhea, can spread through sexual contact, and outbreaks among men who have sex with men have drawn attention. Health agencies are urging doctors to report cases and use antibiotics carefully as treatment options narrow.
Why now: New data showing a sharp rise in drug-resistant Shigella cases has raised public health concerns about its sexual transmission.
