Landover is one of the towns of Prince George's County (PGC) that have been affected by the disquieting numbers of STD infections in the region. HIV, chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis are the most transmitted STIs.
According to a report by PGC HealthZone, after the county barely experienced a change in the number of gonorrhea cases in 2015, the morbidity rose from 140.7 to 219.2 in 2017. Furthermore, the chlamydia rate also jumped from 581. 1 in 2007 to 740.4 in 2016.
As of December 2016, 7,500 individuals were living with HIV in PGC. Among them, 67.5% were men. Twenty-six percent comprised of adults aged between 40 and 49 years.
The Stop HIV Stigma Campaign was created to highlight the role of every individual in stopping the HIV stigma and offering the HIV+ population a voice in society. This program encourages those living with HIV to share their stories and bringing everyone together in one accord: To stop HIV.
STD testing services may be afforded at the Prince Georges County Health Department STD clinic. The clinic may provide STD and HIV testing and treatment on an appointment basis.
Otherwise, you can also visit the Planned Parenthood Clinic in PGC, or the Fast Track Urgent Care Clinic in Kensington.
Other clinics within Landover may provide low-cost or free STD testing. However, some of the clinics may involve inconsistent in waiting times and hours of operations and they may take up to two weeks to release the results. You may also be limited to a single mode of payment.
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.
