Budget cuts in the public health sector have led to loss of funding for sex ed programs in Kansas. Health officials worry that STD rates will increase even more sharply without these programs.
Many people are advocating for expedited partner therapy—sending a course of antibiotics with a patient for their partner—to help curb the increases. Otherwise, patients get re-infected quickly. Health officials warn all sexually active people to always use protection and get tested often.
In 2017, there were 678 people living with HIV or AIDS in Johnson County. Also in 2017, Johnson County had 2,017 cases of chlamydia, at a rate of 345.1 per 100K people, below the Kansas rate of 466.1. The gonorrhea and (primary and secondary) syphilis rates were 99.4 and 2.6.
The Johnson County Department of Health and Environment on Cherry St provides HIV testing. At least one nonprofit in the area provides free STD testing (HIV and syphilis), but there may be a wait. The Urgency Room in nearby Leawood offers STI testing. CVS MinuteClinic does basic screenings.
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.

Poverty is believed to be a factor in increased STD infection rates and the frequency of testing by these populations. A lack of financial resources often translates into a lack of exposure to education about sexual health. It also prevents the acquisition of quality health care because of an inability to pay the associated fees. People who are not aware of the dangers of unprotected sex are much more likely to become exposed to disease. They are also more inclined to ignore symptoms or not understand what they are to begin with. Lack of knowledge contributes to the rampant spread of any disease, and STDs are no exception.
According to recent trends, age, gender and ethnicity are also predicive factors. Over recent years it has been established that Chlamydia is highest in women who have double the rates as men do. Blacks have the highest frequency of infection followed by Whites, then Hispanics with regard to ethnicity. The most common age for any STD is 20 to 24. The data shows that in recent years there is an increasing trend for young people to become infected with Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. Men who engage in male to male sex have a higher frequency of dual diagnoses when it comes to STD infections. It is precisely this type of information that is useful in building educational campaigns aimed at containing the spread of these infectious diseases.
When people have understand the risk factors and the dangers of unprotected sex, there is an increased chance that they will take measures to avoid this unnecessary challenge. Getting the word out to more people is vital. Mandatory sexual health education courses are presented to students at the middle school age in order to reach them before they begin to explore their sexuality. Upon course completion, they will know how to prevent unwanted pregnancy and STD infection. In addition, they will know where they can go to get a Herpes test or HIV testing.
For anyone concerned about privacy, STD clinics offer confidential services. Those who face financial constraints may choose a free STD testing center.
