Early diagnosis and proper treatment are key to combating congenital syphilis.
CDC findings highlight inconsistent implementation of guidelines for evaluations and treatment of infants exposed to syphilis during pregnancy.
Read the article here.
Evaluations and Treatment Among Infants Exposed to Syphilis in Utero:
https://t.co/NkTgnwUzfa
Among infants with possible congenital syphilis, 1 out of 4 infants received other non-recommended treatment or no treatment at all, and only 30% of infants with a reactive blood test at birth received the recommended follow-up testing the first few months after birth.
Increased efforts to improve education, coordination, and broader system level supports are necessary to ensure infants exposed to syphilis during pregnancy receive recommended care.

HIV Long-Term Survivors Awareness Day honors and uplifts the resilience of those who have lived with HIV since before 1996—before effective treatments existed. It shines a light on their enduring strength, lived experience, and vital role in shaping the ongoing fight for justice, care, and dignity.
HLTSAD coincides with a significant milestone in history. The anniversary of the first official reporting of what became known as the AIDS epidemic was on June 5, 1981, when the CDC first reported on five cases of a mysterious disease affecting young gay men.
Decades later, the narrative of HIV has evolved from a period of fear and stigma to one of hope and progress.
Today, nearly 50% of people with HIV in the United States are over the age of 50.
By 2030, this number rises to 70%.

What is syphilis?
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that can cause serious health problems without treatment.
There are four stages of syphilis (primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary). Each stage has different signs and symptoms.
Learn more about the 4 stages and their symptoms at the CDC's website:

While there, you can view information regarding other STIs as well, to stay informed.
Earlier testing can mean earlier treatment. Stay safe.

It's almost here.
One of the most important opportunities for education and awareness about the effect that Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) may have on all of our lives.
STI Awareness Week, or SAW, observed the second full week in April, provides an opportunity to raise awareness about STIs.
CDC estimates that about 20 percent of the U.S. population - approximately one in five people - had an STI on any given day in 2018. STIs acquired that year cost the American health care system nearly $16 billion in health care costs alone.
In this context, innovative testing strategies are critical for prevention. Opportunities for telehealth and self-testing are expanding STI care beyond the clinic setting. This in turn can help us reduce infections and address the challenges of health care access.
NOWDiagnostics is committed to STI awareness, prevention, and treatment, and we want to thank you for joining us, in conjunction with the CDC, in raising awareness to make a difference in our communities. We look forward to seeing the strides we can take to respond to the STI epidemic.
We cannot improve the public's health without you.
