FACEBOOK RELATIONSHIP STATUS PROMPTS DIVORCE

How long does it take to update your Facebook status from “single” to “married”?

For one Indian man, it’s taken more than two months to find the time. As a result, his wife is filing for divorce, MSN reported.

The wife, a 28-year-old IT professional, said she felt she was unable to trust her husband, due to his failure to announce the marriage on Facebook. The husband, a 31-year-old businessman, told the court he’s been too busy with his furniture business to have a chance to do it.

The wife took her complaint to the family court in Aurangabad in an attempt to nullify the marriage. The court found it important to note that the couple’s two-month-long marriage had been arranged.

High Court advocate P. Subhash told local paper Deccan Chronicle that the husband has decided to do whatever it takes to make his newlywed wife happy.

“He was willing to do so now or even de-activate his account, however, the woman was not keen to continue with the marriage and she says her husband might be doing things behind her back and she couldn’t trust him,” Subhash said.

Subhash told the unhappy couple that they are required to undergo counseling in the next six months.

NO GLOVE NO LOVE: NEW STD RESISTANT TO ANTIBIOTICS, MAJOR CRISIS

A major public health crisis is emerging, in the form of a sexually-transmitted disease that doesn’t respond to antibiotics, World Health Organization officials said Wednesday.

Gonorrhea is one of the most common sexually-transmitted infections. It is spread through oral, vaginal and anal sex. About 106 million people worldwide become infected every year.

“Once this organism develops full resistance to this last antibiotic that we have, we have nothing else to offer to these patients,” says Dr. Manjula Lusti-Narasimhan, scientist at the Department of Reproductive Health and Research at WHO.

The consequences of an untreated infection are harsh. In both men and women, it can cause infertility. Up to half of babies born from mothers with gonorrhea have severe eye infections, which could lead to blindness. Women who are pregnant may have spontaneous abortions or ectopic pregnancies. If the bacteria gets to other parts of the body, joint pain, swelling and stiffness are possible.

The organization has just released a global action plan encouraging greater awareness and advocacy, research, increased prevention efforts and monitoring of gonorrhea treatment failure. The same sorts of prevention messages apply for gonorrhea as for HIV/AIDS: Practice safe sex – correct and consistent use of condoms – and limit the number of sexual partners.

Bacteria may become resistant to antibiotics as a result of overuse or improper use of antimicrobial agents as well as poor-quality versions of these drugs. Strains of gonorrhea in particular appear to have a particularly good ability to become resistant.
