Frankly, google sucks for research papers.
You are better off sticking to journal articles. Most schools subscribe to some sort of journal database that is your best bet.
In the meantime the references part of this page is a decent start. Gonorrhea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Do NOT use WIKIPEDIA as a reference however. I would ONLY use it for the references part.
Having only posted over here in the general forum for a short period of time it is appalling how many students either have absolutely no idea how to go about collecting information for a formal research paper, or are just too ****ing lazy to do it.

PubMed is where I always start...

try the CDC website. Also try your local Health Department. Gonorrhea is a communicable disease after all and has to be tracked by the state.
PubMed is decent, however, most of the links to the full text of the journal articles require you to pay. So, unless all you are looking for is abstracts, or want to pay $30+ for a single article that you'll use once the best place to start is your college or public library, unless you live in the middle of nowhere, or are not attending a respectable college/university.

Google has an option under other called scholar. That will give you papers that have been published in journals.
I am well aware of how to write a research paper, but I thought I would ask if anyone knew of a specific site that had good info, given the fact I need to have 5 reliable sources. Sorry my question upset you.
