chlamydia symptoms men :: Article Creator 10% Of Men Have Chlamydia by JENNY HOPE, Daily Mail One in ten young men is infected with chlamydia - the sexually transmitted disease which can rob women of their fertility. Research shows five times more men are carrying the infection than previously thought, but 90 per cent of them have no symptoms. Experts fear increasing promiscuity may be fuelling the spread through unprotected sex and putting the health of a generation of young women at risk.

Enders, Thomas Weller, and Frederick Robbins were trying to find a method to grow different viruses in cell cultures.

To their surprise, the virus proliferated and grew well with their method. Their work eventually solved one of the most important scientific problems of the time. They had just managed to find a way to grow the poliovirus in non-nerve cells. A major roadblock In the mid-20th century, researchers widely believed the poliovirus could only be grown in cultures of nerve cells. This misconception was propagated by their inability to infect rhesus macaques by the oral route, and only by directly injecting the v
