The Labour Spokesman: "Also commonly referred to as “Fire or Runnings”, is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the aerobic microorganism of the species Neisseria Gonorrhoeae. It is a parasite of the female genitals, which leads to several complications if left untreated.

Although the incidence of gonorrhea has declined significantly since the introduction of several antibiotics, in recent times, it has been observed that it is now on the rise again.
