Sexually transmitted disease rates soar: CDC WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. syphilis rates rose for a seventh year in 2007, driven by gay and bisexual men, while chlamydia reached record numbers and gonorrhea remained at alarming levels -- especially among blacks, health officials said on Tuesday. Blacks make up 12 percent of the U.S. population, but account for about 70 percent of gonorrhea cases and almost half of chlamydia and syphilis cases, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.
Black women ages 15 to 19 have the highest rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea, and gonorrhea rates for blacks overall were 19 times higher than for whites, the CDC said.

“...a black teen that just gots to have that monkey love alls the time...”
WTF? Just because you’re new doesn’t mean you have to be stupid.
They were about 14% in the 70s. But two main things have occurred. First, half of all black children conceived are killed by abortion. (See Black Genocide.org) Second, the Hispanic population has a higher live birth rate than the black population. The 14% figure has slowly edged towards 12% in the last 30 years.
list?
I can see this as a ploy for Planned Parenthood and on school campus public health asking for a lot of fed/state funding to treat the Epedimic.
I dont know where gay men go for free sex health care so cant list their clinic outlet.
: )
This is a racist and sexist diatribe.
How unlike Reuters to point out uncomplimentary facts about the protected classes.
This type of hate talk will not be permitted after the Coronation.
/sarcasm_off/
I’m surprised it wasn’t redacted, and displayed so prominently.
Just wait for the revision, (French) Reuters hasn’t heard from the gang yet on how this is supposed to be presented.
Consider abortion, as to why their birth rates are not as high as you might think.
Just gotta love that sexual revolution huh?
If this gets any worse, it might even be worth trying abstinance, followed by fidelity. I know, reactionary concept, but if it prevents disease it migfht be a nice experiment.
The Census Bureau put the percentage of the population which is black at 12.7% in 2000 and 12.8% in their July 2006 estimate. The highest percentage was the first census, in 1790, when black people were 19.3% of the population—that had dropped to 9.7% in 1930 after the decades of massive immigration from Europe.
Illustrations of that kind get the attention of young people more than adults, I think. We talk about teenagers’ thinking they’re invincible, but there are many adults who think being over 21 confers immunity from the consequences of foolish behavior.
We sometimes use the handshake activity in Girl Scouts and even Sunday School in the late fall, to illustrate the spread of colds, flu, and that nasty digestive crud.
Doesn’t matter. He was elected in 2000 so it’s close enough.
