The new, super-resistant strain is called H041, and so far, only a handful of cases are known in Japan. But don’t count on it staying that way. Experience has shown that once a resistant strain of gonorrhea appears, it steadily displaces those that can be killed with antibiotics.

…

But the discovery of H041 foretells a different ballgame. This super-gonorrhea strain doesn’t merely require higher doses of the most powerful antibiotic available. It might be entirely untreatable.

So the new bug calls for “enhanced disease control activities” to contain it, or at least delay its spread, the Swedish and Japanese teams says, and “ultimately, new drugs are essential… for efficacious gonorrhea treatment.”
