Fulton County, where East Point is a suburban city, has the leading cases of HIV/AIDS reported in Georgia in 2015, with a total number of 13,468 cases and a prevalence rate of 1,499 cases. The number of new cases diagnosed in 2015 is a significant increase from the 10,429 cases reported in 2013, signaling a dire need for HIV awareness.
In 2007, Fulton County recorded an average of 568 cases of chlamydia per 100,000 residents, whereas, in 2016, an average of 821 cases were recorded.
Fulton County STD statistics have fluctuated between highs and lows throughout the last ten years, with the most recent trend of chlamydial infections showing a dramatic increase between 2016-2017 that Fulton County is still recovering from.
Fulton County has established an HIV/AIDS Task Force to tackle the high numbers of HIV/AIDS reported in recent years. They aim to decrease HIV transmission and improve the quality of life for persons living with HIV (PLWH), through prevention and care, and by improving social determinants of health such as housing and transport for PLWH.
The Medical and Preventative Services program in Fulton County also assists in promoting and protecting the sexual health of residents by aiming to reduce and treat communicable diseases such as STDs, HIV, and TB. County clinics that offer preventative services and treatment include the HIV Primary Care (Ryan White) Clinic and the Adamsville Regional Health Center.
Some public clinics in East Point may offer free STD testing services, but to qualify you might need to meet pre-specified income or welfare requirements. Appointments may need to be booked in advance for these services.
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.
