NY Post: STD Epidemic is out of control in the US.


quote:

Sharply rising cases of some sexually transmitted diseases — including a 26% rise in new syphilis infections reported last year


quote:

Infections rates for some STDs, including gonorrhea and syphilis, have been rising for years. Last year the rate of syphilis cases reached its highest since 1991 and the total number of cases hit its highest since 1948. HIV cases are also on the rise, up 16% last year.


quote:

And an international outbreak of monkeypox, which is being spread mainly between men who have sex with other men, has further highlighted the nation’s worsening problem with diseases spread mostly through sex.





There is good news tho. Apparently, you are going to get to fund it.


quote:

Harvey’s group and some other public health organizations are pushing a proposal for more federal funding, including at least $500 million for STD clinics.

Mena, who last year became director of the CDC’s Division of STD Prevention, called for reducing stigma, broadening screening and treatment services, and supporting the development and accessibility of at-home testing. “I envision one day where getting tested (for STDs) can be as simple and as affordable as doing a home pregnancy test,” he said.


Here's a pic for you baws who are disbelievers.

It’s a direct quote from the article

David Harvey, executive director of the National Coalition of STD Directors, called the situation “out of control.”

Does this apply to heterosexuals or just the alphabet community?

The Greatest Generation liked to f—k.

We know this because of the baby boom following WWII. Neither history books nor my grandparents mentioned anything about syphilis.

WAY more people have it then you think and some may never have an outbreak.

I had my first cold sore when I was like 12. Almost certainly was from sharing a bottle during sports or at school. It is very easy to catch and is not dependent upon sex.

I had another one in college and haven’t had another since. I’m 32 now.
