Deadlier Than AIDS: Scientists Discover New STD That Kills Within Days

A new sexually transmitted super-bug has emerged and according to experts, may be more deadly that AIDS and could cause an epidemic.

According to reports, an antibiotic-resistant strain of gonorrhea is more aggressive than the HIV virus, which means the potential to infect the public will be greater.

This strain of STD which is resistant to antibiotic, reportedly kills half of those exposed and infects one in 20 hospital patients thereby raising the threat of an outbreak to emergency levels.

Alan Christianson, a doctor of naturopathic medicine, thinks this new strain has the power to rack up more fatalities than AIDS.

Simple Rules On How To Keep Men Of These Days

Many women have lost some precious men in their lives because they couldn't play by the rules of how to keep a man.

Some women are now in their 40′s and still don't have any man in their lives and they blame it on the old lady in their village. Keeping a man does not demand a Master's degree or Phd. It is simply by following some rules that will touch the man inside.

Below are 10 rules on how to keep a man:

GIVE HIM SPACE: The fact that he's given you his key does not mean you should always be in the room, sometimes men love to be alone and always being around ruins it. If you're that kind of woman who wouldn't let him have that space and always wanting him available or forcing to accompany him everywhere, you can ruin your relationship. Respect his space, it is very important to him.

BE LOYAL: Everybody loves those who show constant support to them and men are not an exception. Any woman who shows constant support or by being loyal to his man has a greater chance of keeping him than those who don't. Every man loves a woman who believes in his ideologies and is willing to support him achieve them.

BE PATIENT: Every man will find it difficult to stay with a woman who is impatient and wants to argue all the time. If a man gets angry, it should take the patient of a woman to calm him down, so if you are the type who easily gets angry, how will you be able to calm a man down. The key point here is, be patient. Men hate women who retorts at everything they say.
