Dr. DiCenco says the numbers in a state health department alert about STD’s and HIV among 15-24 year olds in Beaver County are “quite concerning and we, in our practice, have seen an uptick in the number of Gonorrhea and Chlamydia cases.”
The state alert says the cases of Gonorrhea among 15-24 year old men and women were up 34 percent in 2017 compared to 2016. HIV was up almost threefold.
“The HIV rate increasing 300 percent is very concerning,” says Dr. DiCenco.
So why are the numbers among young people rising? Students on the Carnegie Mellon Campus had these responses:
“I guess people don’t think it’s that much of a big deal, especially with the advancement in medical care.”

Since I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night, I feel I'm qualified to answer that question.

Just abort the infection. Or failing that, lop off the appendage and get a new one via those “Sex change” surgeries! < /s >

That’s why Penn State’s football team plays in “Beaver Stadium” that is located in “Happy Valley”!!!

The students at Carnegie Mellon aren't getting a good education.
