Surge in syphilis cases drives some doctors to ration penicillin
The rise in syphilis has created demand for the injection that manufacturer Pfizer can't keep up with, according to the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists. "There is insufficient supply for usual ordering," the ASHP said in a memo.
@stueytheround evidently we are very bold.

I wonder if mass immunosuppression from repeated covid infection will be found to play a role in this.
Welcome back to the dark ages, ladies and gentlemen.
@nursefrombirth Did we stop using condoms?
