Gonorrhea is the second most common STI, with more than 82 million new infections globally each year, including 601,319 cases in the United States in 2023.

The first case of Neisseria gonorrhoeae with the emerging mosaic penA60 allele — which confers reduced susceptibility to cefixime and ceftriaxone — has been identified in the United States, according to a recent study.
