This sounds eerily familiar.

just like aids, takes one bisexual to send that epidemic over to the other side. Just a matter of time, better get started on a new vaccine research.

God knows we don't need another Aids!

At least this one can be curable if caught early....

I wonder how LGV affects women?

It reads to me like granuloma inguinale (sp?), which I learned about 20-something years ago in my human sexuality class at USC. Horrific-sounding isht.:eek:

What's early detection?

Since chlamydia is a bacteria, the way it is killed is different from a virus... But in some bacteria, it's not the bacteria itself, directly causing the problem, it is what the bacteria secretes, leaves behind or nasty byproducts (some being toxins) that also causes disease...

In any case, this stuff ain't cool either way...

Ignorance is not bliss... It can kill you...
