The Australian National Neisseria Network (NNN) comprises reference laboratories in each state and territory that report data on antimicrobial susceptibility testing to an agreed group of antimicrobial agents for the Australian Gonococcal Surveillance Programme (AGSP). The AGSP data are presented quarterly in tabulated form, as well as in the AGSP annual report. This report presents national gonococcal antimicrobial resistance surveillance data from 1 October to 31 December 2023.

Neisseria gonorrhoeae is an on-going public health problem due in part to the lack of success with efforts to develop an efficacious vaccine to prevent this sexually transmitted infection. The gonococcal transferrin binding protein B (TbpB) is an attractive candidate vaccine antigen. However, it exhibits high levels of antigenic variability, posing a significant obstacle in evoking a broadly protective immune response.

There is growing evidence that microbial dysbiosis is intimately related to carcinogenesis across several types of human cancer. is best known for causing acute exudative genitourinary infection in males. can also cause chronic, asymptomatic infection of the female genitourinary tract along with the oropharynx and rectum of both sexes.

Background: In Australia, gonococcal infection notification rates are increasing with reinfections representing a substantial proportion of infections. Understanding the local epidemiology of gonococcal infections and reinfections and the risk factors for reinfection can assist with the design of targeted interventions. This study aimed to describe the epidemiology of gonococcal infections and reinfections between 2017 and 2022 in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), and to examine the risk factors for reinfection.
