In recent years, STD rates, including gonorrhea, syphilis, and chlamydia have risen significantly in many communities across the county, and Warwick, RI is no exception.
The Rhode Island Department of Health’s 2015 Surveillance Report showed that there were between 200 and 300 cases of chlamydia per 100,000 people. This report went on to reveal that the city had between 25 and 50 cases of gonorrhea per 100,000 residents and between 10 and 20 cases of syphilis per 100,000 residents.
Additional health reports show that the majority of newly reported STD cases involve teenagers and young adults ranging from 15 to 24-years old.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, out of a total population of 142,109, Kent County had 6 newly diagnosed cases of HIV in 2017.
Warwick, RI has numerous health care clinics and facilities that may offer STD and/or HIV testing, such as CareWell Urgent Care Warwick, Thundermist Health Clinic, and Ocean State Urgent Care of Warwick. Many of these centers are located just minutes from I-95 or right off Providence Street in West Warwick.
If you take I-95 just 12 miles north into Providence, you will find several other medical facilities, including the Mariam Hospital, AIDS Project Rhode Island, and ACOS (Accountable Care Organizations) that might provide STD testing or HIV testing.
Some of these clinics even advertise free STD testing. However, it’s important to keep in mind that testing results may not be immediate. In addition, a doctor may not be available for a consultation, which means that you might not be able to obtain an immediate prescription to treat an STD.
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.
