DOVER, Del. — Delaware health officials say the number of chlamydia infections reported in the state this year is up 40 percent from the same time last year. More than 900 cases of chlamydia have been reported to the Division of Public Health so far this year, compared with about 700 during the same period last year. Cathy Mosley, the administrator of the Division's sexually transmitted disease program, says the increase reflects a nationwide trend. She says chlamydia infections have risen as incidents of other sexually transmitted diseases decline.

More than 900 cases of chlamydia have been reported to the Division of Public Health so far this year, compared with about 700 during the same period last year.
900/700=1.29
How does this amount to a 40% increase?

Just what I was wondering!
To: gridlock; 9YearLurker
The article says "about 700" last year compared to "more than 900" this year.
The math depends on how much more than 900. A 40% increase would equal about 980 reported infections.

We only have 900,000 people in Delaware.
That means one out of a hundred people here have chlamydia.

Regardless of the math - I think it’s stunning. However, it’s a very blue state....so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

Just a side note.
My wife, an ER doc, took care of a little girl named Chlamydia. Her mother thought it was just a very pretty name.
You can fill in the details on your own.

A friend and school librarian told me she had a student once whose name was Atomizer Jane. I’m sure both families are big Obama fans.
