Using antibiotics for preventative care seems like a bad idea. It contributes to the problem of antibiotic resistant bacteria. And it has side effects, like wiping out your gut microbiome.

I’d he curious to know how many people were getting syphilis in the first place. Like, if 50% of people were getting syphilis before, that would mean 50% of people would be taking the antibiotic for no benefit whatsoever.

Would have been a good Onion story if they swapped the factions and ended the headline at “syphilis” 😁
