gonorrhea
Let an agent explain gonorrhea at a general, factual, non-judgmental level from medical and public-health sources, relay transmission, prevention and the resistance concern, and route personal concerns to a clinician or sexual-health service.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain gonorrhea at a general, factual, non-judgmental level from medical and public-health sources, relay transmission, prevention and the resistance concern, and route personal concerns to a clinician or sexual-health service.
A common sexually transmitted infection caused by a bacterium, which can infect the genital tract, rectum and throat and, if untreated, lead to complications; the registry aliases name site-specific and complicated forms and the growing problem of antibiotic resistance. Gonorrhea is diagnosed by testing and treated with antibiotics, and it is a public-health topic. This entry gives general, factual information, and any personal situation should be directed to a qualified clinician or sexual-health service.
What it is for: Not applicable; a bacterial infection.
It can be explain the infection generally; relay transmission and prevention; note antibiotic resistance; route personal concerns to a service.
Distinguishing features
Bacterial cause
Sexually transmitted
Treatable with antibiotics
Resistance is rising
What it looks like
Not a visible object; a bacterial infection recognised by testing and, sometimes, symptoms.
Physical character
cause: a bacterium note
transmission: sexual contact note
registry parents: urethral disease, reproductive-tract disease note
How it is recognised
Bacterial sexually transmitted infection
Site-specific and complicated forms, antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea
It is caused by a specific bacterium, unlike viral infections
