COVID-19 had a sizeable impact on the fight against sexually transmitted diseases.

Let's connect the dots.

Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows reported cases dropped during the early months of the pandemic, before surging at the end of 2020.

Reported cases of gonorrhea and primary & secondary syphilis were up 10% and 7%, respectively, compared to 2019.

Reported cases of chlamydia, the most common STD in America, went down 13% from 2019. Both South Carolina and North Carolina rank in the top five for the rate of reported cases. Data from the 2020 STD Surveillance report shows S.C. reported 34,118 cases of chlamydia while N.C. reported 64,640 cases.
