Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) spiked significantly across the Big Apple following the lifting of lockdown restrictions, new data from the New York City Health Department reveals.
The agency’s stats show chlamydia cases rose 9% between 2020 and 2021, while the number of females diagnosed with primary and secondary syphilis surged by 28.7%.
The “significant” rise in infections has prompted public officials to plead with raunchy residents to urgently get tested to stop further spread. Some centers are now repurposing lab equipment used for COVID tests to screen for chlamydia and gonorrhea, the department said in a press release regarding the rise in infections.

the gift that keeps on giving...

When did we switch from VD to STD? When did we switch from social disease to VD?

God will not be mocked. We got the syphillis uptick in 2014 or 2015. So I cannot imagine how bad it is now.
This is a medieval disease caused by medieval behaviors.

I think the switch was from Venereal Disease to Social Disease.
Because people became too stupid to know what “venereal” means.
