Palmetto Bay, FL, a village in Miami-Dade County, is experiencing a serious STD outbreak that's not slowing down.
In 2015, the county reported 11,862 chlamydia cases, and in less than five years, in 2019, it had 13,415 new infections.
Gonorrhea diagnoses are also rising with 2,600 cases in 2015 jumping to 4,315 in 2018.
Another concern is syphilis. In 2015, the county reported 493 infectious syphilis infections, and by 2018, it had 546 new cases. Congenital syphilis infections are also increasing with eight diagnoses in 2015 and 24 in 2018.
County and state public health officials are concerned about the increasing STD rates and are asking all people that are sexually active to get routine tests and help stop the spread of STIs.
Several health centers provide comprehensive STD testing in Palmetto Bay, and Miami-Dade County. Many locations include treatment and follow-up care at the same facility.
The South Florida Health Clinic offers screenings on the corner of SW 184 St and S Dixie Hwy in Cutler Bay. This site is accessible by a public bus route.
Another option is the Family Medical Clinic Kendall on SW 137th Ave.
The AHF Wellness Center at South Beach offers STI services on the corner of 16th St and Alton Rd in Miami Beach.
Some clinics might offer free STD testing. Comprehensive tests may not be included, and proof of income could be requested at these locations. Additionally, results may take several days to be available.
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.
