In Suffolk County, the rate of Chlamydia infections increased from 352.2 per 100,000 in 2017 to 368.4 per 100,000 persons in 2018.
There was also an increase in Gonorrhea infections from 55.4 per 100,000 persons in 2017 to 56.4 per 100,000 individuals in 2018.
Early Syphilis rates in the county decreased from 10.9 per 100,000 in 2017 to 10.5 per 100,000 individuals in 2018. The rate of Syphilis infections was reported to be higher in men who have sex with other men.
To mitigate the spread of HIV/STDs, the Suffolk County Department of Health Services has championed for clinical health service providers to increase sexual health training and awareness in the community. It has also increased HIV/STD testing among men who have sex with other men and commercial sex workers.
Northwell Health-GoHealth Urgent Care, Planned Parenthood - West Islip Health Center, and Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center are some of the medical facilities that offer STD/HIV testing services.
Clients in the North Babylon area have access to free STD/HIV testing, but hours and availability in some clinics might not be consistent, and prescriptions for after test care might not be available if they've tested positive.
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.
