“Is there any fool proof way to avoid catching a sexually transmitted disease?”

No. The propaganda tells us that it has nothing to do with actions or behavior.

“The propaganda tells us that it has nothing to do with actions or behavior.”

Exactly, and as an RN, I know they were seeing this antibiotic resistance in the 80’s not long after they discovered AIDS. Political correctness should have nothing to do with medicine.

Umm, doorknobs or toilet flush handles, maybe?

There is a form of treatment, not widely used in the West, that attacks the pathogens directly, rather than through the antibiotic therapy regimen. Disease organisms, pathogens, are themselves subject to deadly diseases that attack them at the cellular level, invading the central living portion of the cell. This bacteriophage therapy has been developed in Eastern Europe and the Russian Federation, and is highly specific for each microorganism species. Things like MRSA, resistant to the usual antibiotics, are treated successfully by an infusion of this specific culture.

So far as I understand the biological action, these bacteriophages are almost considered a virus, and in the absence of the host cell, they revert to a dormant state.
