- JumpCrisscross 8y ago> Antibiotics won’t work forever. Seeing drug resistant strains already You said there's "no cure." That's different. Reducing frequencies of a disease for which there is literally no cure in exchange for higher frequencies of a disease for which there is emerging antibiotic resistance is still a good trade. The article you cite regarding rising STD rates claims the cause is "a decline in funding for state and local agencies working on prevention" as well as "an extreme lack of awareness about STDs and sexual health" and "doctors are not screening and testing for these diseases and patients [not knowing] they need to ask to be tested" [1]. The only link to HIV stated is "people are not afraid of dying from HIV," not a link to prep. [1] https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna904311 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna904311
