STD Epidemic in US Is ‘Out of Control,’ Warn Experts, CDC
New York Post ^ | September 19, 2022

Posted on 09/19/2022 6:40:20 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Sharply rising cases of some sexually transmitted diseases — including a 26% rise in new syphilis infections reported last year — are prompting U.S. health officials to call for new prevention and treatment efforts.

“It is imperative that we … work to rebuild, innovate, and expand (STD) prevention in the U.S.,” said Dr. Leandro Mena of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in a speech Monday at a medical conference on sexually transmitted diseases.

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.

Last year the rate of syphilis cases reached its highest since 1991 and the total number of cases hit its highest since 1948.

The population of the U.S. was about 40% of what it is today, how could the cases been as high.

1948 was probably a peak because of those returning home from World War II.

Gentlemen: Only ever stick it in your wife.

Ladies: Only ever spread ‘em for your husband.

Following this simple advice will minimize a whole host of societal problems ... including the spread of VD.

The elephant in the room is that “Safe sex” is a myth. The idea that using condoms means you can have sex without consequences is a lie pedaled by the libertines.

If you do it frequently enough. It will either result in pregnancy or STD, or both.

Even if condoms have a 98% success rate (which is higher than any condom on the market actually claims and requires perfect use).

If one has sex twice a month, the overall success rate drop drops to 61% in one year, in two years it drops to 38%, and in 3 years it drops to 23%.

That means even with perfect usages, a casual sex life style will result in std and/or pregnancy in around 3 out of 4 such persons within 3 years.

The Bible is a not just a set of rules, it’s actually a user manual given to us by the manufacturer himself.

“Last year the rate of syphilis cases reached its highest since 1991 and the total number of cases hit its highest since 1948.”

Sure, folks are more promiscuous today than they ever have been.

Those kids staying home from school and those working from home got busy filling the hours.
