The high levels of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) in Beloit, WI, Rock County, have become an issue of great concern to the Rock County Public Health Department. Gonorrhoea and chlamydia are some STDs whose rates continue to escalate, according to the Health Department.
The 2018 County Health Rankings saw Rock County record the fifth highest chlamydia levels in Wisconsin. Statistics from up to 2015 revealed that the STD’s rate in the county was 455.4 cases per 100,000 residents and it was higher than that of the state average which was 423.5 diagnoses for every 100,000 people.
Information from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services in 2018 showed that there were 232 cases of gonorrhea in Rock County in 2016. This was a rise from the 146 infections of the STD that were reported in 2015.
An example of an initiative whose purpose is to lower the high incidences of HIV reported in Beloit is the Wisconsin HIV Program. It encourages residents to know their HIV status by getting tested. It also promotes treatment and counseling services for people living with the virus in the region.
Beloit residents can seek STD/HIV tests at the Rock County Health Department in Janesville or the Waukesha County Sexually Transmitted Disease and HIV Clinic. The City of Milwaukee Health Department and the Pierce County Reproductive Health in River Falls also provide the tests.
While some public medical facilities might be offering free STD testing services, they may charge for consulting the doctor. Moreover, the tests provided may be inconclusive.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention1 (CDC) recommends screening for the most common STDs, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, herpes 1, herpes 2, and HIV for both men and women. In addition, the CDC suggests women get screened for trichomoniasis.
SaferSTD recommends searching for locations that offer a 10-test panel which tests for the most common bacteria and viral STDs in the U.S. with additional premium add-ons like early HIV detection, if needed.
The CDC2 provides detailed STD testing information as to when you should get tested. In summary, you should get tested today if you are sexually active, never been tested before, have had unprotected sex in the past, or if you exhibit symptoms.
According to the World Health Organization3, the majority of STI cases reported every day, more than one million, are asymptomatic; another reason to get tested today.
You should get tested again in 90 days to rule out STDs that have specific exposure waiting times, including HIV.
STD testing can be a quick and simple process, depending on the type of test you choose and where you get tested. Some may require an oral or genital swab, a urine test or blood sample, or a physical exam to check your genital area for signs of an STD.
SaferSTD has identified preferred providers that require only a urine test, a blood sample, or both without a physical exam.
The speed at which you receive your STD testing results depends on where you get tested. Before you choose your location, find out how long testing results will take.
At-home STD testing results are usually 3-5 business days, depending on the manufacturer of your test. You also need to take into account the amount of time it takes to receive the test or pick one up, perform the test, and ship it back, before the lab can analyze your results and report back to you.
If you test at a public facility such as a neighborhood clinic, you may have to wait a week, if not more for the results, which could delay treatment. If you test through a private facility, they have the fastest turnaround within 1-3 business days.
