Sexually transmitted diseases in Klamath County have been on the rise over the past decade. County health officials have been left with no choice but to look for effective prevention strategies to prevent further spread of STDs.
According to an STD Report by the Oregon Health Authority, Klamath County recorded an increase of chlamydia cases in 2010-2016, from 180 to 269 cases. The highest chlamydia incident rate occurred among individuals of age 20-24 years.
Additionally, gonorrhea cases in the county remained stable between 2016 and 2017 with 61 and 60 cases respectively. The incident rate in 2017 was 61.6 cases per 100,000 population.
In its attempt to curb the transmission of HIV/AIDS, the CDC came up with the "HIV Treatment Works". The campaign shares stories of HIV+ individuals who are successfully managing their health by seeking treatment. The goal is to see PLWHA leading longer and healthier lives.
Sexually active individuals are at risk of contracting STDs. If you'd like to know you HIV/STD status, you can visit the Klamath County Public Health STI Specialty clinic which is nestled along Main St. The clinic may offer confidential and discreet testing and treatment services.
Another alternative is the HIV Alliance which has several outlets for STD care and testing services. They include clinics on West Luellen, Roseburg; Beverly Ave NE, Salem; City View St, Eugene; and Holly St, Medford.
You can also opt to get tested at one of the nearby clinics which might offer free STD testing services in Klamath Falls. However, these clinics may only offer a limited number of STD tests and may delay releasing results for up to two weeks. Also, you may not have multiple payment options.
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.

Some STD testing clinics offer same-day walk-in options without an appointment. Below are nearby preferred locations that offer this option.
The cost of STD testing depends on whether you select private, public, or at-home testing, as well as the type of test(s) you need.
Several at-home STD options and public testing locations can cost up to $250, with most on the higher end, depending on the brand and type of testing. Public testing fees also vary based on income and welfare eligibility.
With private testing, you may save money on a low-cost comprehensive 10-test panel that tests for the most common bacterial and viral STDs in the United States.
