ENGLAND could launch the world\u2019s first gonorrhoea vaccine programme to slash STI rates.<\/p>\n

Cases of 'the clap' are at a record high with 82,592 in England in 2022, compared to around 55,0000 in 2021 and 31,000 in 2013.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

There are also fears the bug will mutate to become an antibiotic resistant \u201csuper-gonorrhoea\u201d that is hard to treat.<\/p>\n

The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation now says people at high risk should get a meningitis shot to protect against infection.<\/p>\n

Both are caused by similar bacteria and the MenB vaccine already used on the NHS could prevent up to four in 10 cases, it is estimated.<\/p>\n

Professor Andrew Pollard, chair of the JCVI, said: \u201cThis would be a world first and should significantly help to reduce levels of gonorrhoea, which are currently at a record high.\u201d<\/p>\n

Katy Sinka, head of sexually transmitted infections at the UK Health Security Agency, added: \u201cA vaccination programme to impact on gonorrhoea cases would be hugely welcome to ensure we are better prepared to address this increasing threat.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe saw a rapid rise last year with more cases than ever before.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd with gonorrhoea becoming increasingly resistant to antibiotics, tackling this infection is a serious concern.\u201d<\/p>\n

A rollout, if signed off by health ministers, would likely target gay men and people who have a lot of sexual partners.<\/p>\n

Many people do not experience symptoms so pass it on unknowingly, and it can cause fertility problems or even sepsis if untreated for a long time.<\/p>\n

It can be easily diagnosed with a swab or urine test and treated with antibiotics.<\/p>\n

Official figures show around seven in 10 cases are in men.<\/p>\n

The Department of Health will decide whether to begin the vaccine programme.<\/p>\n
