Neisseria gonorrhoeae


Hello hello.
I'm N. gonorrhoeae.
I'm Gram Negative bacteria, but I'm not a rod.
I'm a coccus, which is a round bacteria, or sometimes two stuck together.
Most people call me 'Gonococcus'.

I am spread by sexual contact and I cause the STD called gonorrhoea.
I can give you urethrtis, pharyngitis and cervicitis - which can lead to infertility.
If I get into your blood I cause fever, skin lesions, arthritis and joint pain.
I can get into the eyes of infants when they're born, if their mother is infected with me.

Hilarious... and yet informative... not entirely unlike a smarter version of sesame street. Not that I still watch that.

What a great blog, and a great design.

Great design and great content, indeed. I´m in my last year of my Biology degree and I recognise I ended up hating the microbiological taxonomy but maybe that was because they didn´t teach it like this.
