  Catching gonorrhoea once doesn't stop you from getting it again. "I went from having no STIs in my life, to having three or four in the space of three months. It was ridiculous," Max tells BBC Newsbeat.

The article discusses the urgent need for a gonorrhoea vaccine due to rising infection rates and increasing antibiotic resistance. Health experts and charities are advocating for the development and rollout of a vaccine to combat this sexually transmitted infection (STI). Gonorrhoea cases have been on the rise, with the UK seeing a significant increase, and there's a growing concern about strains that are resistant to multiple antibiotics. The call for a vaccine is supported by the fact that current treatments are becoming less effective, and without new strategies, the spread of gonorrhoea could become unmanageable. The article highlights ongoing research into vaccine candidates, with some showing promise in early trials, and emphasizes the potential public health benefits of a vaccine, including reducing the burden on healthcare systems and preventing long-term health complications associated with untreated gonorrhoea.
