Introduction

What are the STI test options in Hawaii?

Sunshine, surf, and sandy beaches are how tourists think of the Hawaiian islands but for residents of all Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Maui, Molokai, Lanai, Kahoolawe and the Big Island of Hawaii the appeal goes deeper. The laid-back lifestyle and the low emphasis on money that define why many Hawaiians choose to live here are in direct conflict to the reason many tourists visit. The islands have diverse landscape, a plethora of unique career opportunities and a strong sense of culture and history that help Hawaii to maintain its unique feel in comparison to the other states. This resistance to mainland ideals can negatively impact locals when it comes to taking full advantage of health-care including STD clinics that offer  STD testing in Hawaii as well as upscale private STD testing.

Additional STD Test Statistics in Hawaii

Hawaii State health profiles STD statistics across the islands. Syphilis remains a health problem primarily with men who have sex with men as well as congenital transmission from mothers to unborn children. In Hawaii the rate of syphilis was 3 per 100,000 in sexually-transmitted cases with only 1 case of congenital syphilis in the last eight years.

Chlamydia has an infection rate of 477 per 100,000 and is ranked 39th among 50 states. Gonorrhea  infections were reported at 52 per 100,000 reported cases of chlamydia among women were 2 1/2 times greater than those among men. Ciprofloxacin-resistant gonorrhea is endemic in Hawaii therefore those diagnosed with gonorrhea in any part of Hawaii should not be treated with fluoroquinolones.

Hepatitis A and B are at the lowest rates ever recorded due to the effective use of vaccines. There is still no effect of vaccine for Hep C widely available. The number of people living with diagnosed HIV in Hawaii is 2430. This makes the rate of 206 per 100,000. Of this number:

  • 86% were male and 14% were female.
  • 5% of people living with HIV were black 10% Hispanic and 50% white.
  • Rates of infection are higher in lower income populations and those living below the poverty level.

The Center for disease control has spent more than $2 million to fight HIV in the islands and just under $400,000 in preventing STDs. State progress toward CDC’s division of HIV/AIDS prevention goals show marked improvement in early diagnosis and educating the Hawaiian public.

Sexual Health Education

STD Testing and Sexual Health Education in Hawaii

In June 2015 the Hawaii Board of Education  passed a revision to the Sex Education Policy resulting in a new approach. Prior to this change the education methods were entirely abstinence-based. The new goals are to open an ongoing conversation using age-appropriate curriculum that promotes dialogue, both at home and in class,  on healthy sexual practices as they change through the maturation process.

Evidence-based teen pregnancy prevention programs have been shown to change teens’ sexual behavior by increasing youths’ knowledge and understanding of risk around pregnancy and STDs. By educating youth about contraception, sexual values, and confidence to avoid unprotected sex the Board of Education hopes to reduce incidences.

Sexual health education in Hawaii still has challenges, including financing, curriculum , and encouraging balanced parent involvement as well as educator training and instruction time. Cultural differences between local natives and the many non-Americans living on the islands is also an issue.

  • Hawaii has one of the lowest rates of condom use nationwide according to the 2013 High School Youth Risk Behavior Survey. 54% did not use a condom during last sexual intercourse compared to 41% of youth nationally.
  • Since 2001, cases of gonorrhea have continued to rise and there are some strains that are antibiotic resistant.
  • Chlamydia infections are extremely high among male adolescents 10–19 years (1,944 cases per 100,000)
  • Teen pregnancy rates are still high in rural areas

Sexually Transmitted Diseases and Demographics in Hawaii

We know that the demographics in Hawaii can play a key role in health disparities across age, ethnic background, and income level. The combined population for the Hawaiian Islands is almost 1.5 million people with the split being equal male and female. The racial makeup includes 38% Asian, 24% white, 10% native Hawaiian, and 23% being composed of two or more races combined.

Those in rural communities face health access consequences associated with living in remote regions and may have limited access to health-care and public clinics. Additionally, transportation and fear of confidentiality in such small communities may be part of the challenge. Those identified at highest risk include:

  • early school failure
  • students who obtain poor grades or have low achievement scores
  • early behavioral problems
  • addicted persons
  • teens and adults who engage in delinquent activities
  • teens with dysfunctional families
  • those living in poverty

Other demographic contributors include:

  • 91% have a high school diploma with 30% having obtained a bachelor’s degree or higher.
  • 5% of those residing in Hawaii do not have health insurance.
  • 10% of people living in Hawaii live below the poverty rate with a median household income of $69,000 combined.
  • The rate of black women who have HIV is almost 3 times that of white women.
  • The rate of Hispanic females with HIV is half that of white females.
  • People diagnosed with HIV are predominantly men who engage with sex with other men.
  • For women, next to heterosexual sex, injection drug use is the second-highest transmission category with 27% of women affected being injection drug users.
