STD cases reach all time high in California, report finds
Associated Press, LOS ANGELES — The number of cases of sexually transmitted
diseases in California reached a record high last year and officials are
particularly concerned by a spike in stillbirths due to congenital syphilis,
state health authorities said Monday.
More than 300,000 cases of chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis were reported
in 2017, a 45 percent increase from five years ago, according to data
released by the California Department of Public Health.
Chlamydia and gonorrhea are most common among people under 30, the report
said. Rates of chlamydia are highest among young women, while men account
for the majority of syphilis and gonorrhea cases.
If left untreated, chlamydia and gonorrhea can lead to infertility, ectopic
pregnancy and chronic pelvic pain. Syphilis can result in blindness, hearing
loss and neurologic problems.
The figure that caused the greatest alarm for researchers and administrators
was 30 stillbirths resulting from congenital syphilis statewide — the
highest number reported since 1995, the CDPH said. Los Angeles County alone
saw congenital syphilis cases jump from eight in 2013 to 47 last year.
"For California to have a steady increase in congenital syphilis is shameful
," said Dr. Jeffrey Klausner, a professor of medicine at University of
California, Los Angeles. He pointed to nations such as Cuba, Thailand and
Belarus that have nearly eliminated the life-threatening infection seen in
infants.
"We've known how to control syphilis since early 1900s. Seeing it come back
like this is a sign of failure of the public health safety net," Klausner
said.
Klausner placed much of the blame for the overall STD spike on what he
called the "decimation" of public health infrastructure since the 2008
financial crisis. Funding slashed a decade ago hasn't been restored, leading
to continued closing of clinics and collapse of education programs about
risks and treatment options.
Dr. Heidi Bauer, chief of the state health department's STD Control Branch,
agreed that budget issues are part of the problem. She estimated that about
$20 million in state and federal money is allocated yearly to fighting STDs
— a small number in a state with nearly 40 million residents.
Bauer also suggested the rise in STDs may be a symptom of more general
problems in areas such as the economically hard-hit San Joaquin Valley where
people are struggling with poverty, substance abuse, mental health issues
and homelessness.
She also partially blamed the funneling of patients away from public health
services toward primary care physicians under the Affordable Care Act.
"For sexual health, primary care wasn't the most effective method," Bauer
said. Someone who depended on public clinics for STD screening and treatment
may not want to discuss it with their doctor, or may not have a doctor at
all, she said.
The health department is spearheading a "multi-pronged" effort to educate
the public about the risks and get the word out to medical providers about
the latest advances in screening and treatment, Bauer said.
Officials are also increasing efforts to follow up on cases, especially
those involving pregnant women with syphilis, she said.
Experts agreed that sex education in schools and programs in the community
raising awareness and having a public discussion about the often stigmatized
conditions.
"While there are advocates and champions for cancer, nobody is out there
saying, 'I have gonorrhea and these are the best ways to treat it.' There's
no one out there being a champion for these conditions," said Klausner.
The health department's director, Dr. Karen Smith, urged sexually active
people to use condoms and get tested regularly. Many STDs can be cured with
antibiotics if attacked quickly.
Rates for chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis have been rising nationally for
several years. More than two million new cases of all three infections were
reported in the United States in 2016 — the most ever, according to the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. CDC numbers for 2017 won't be
available until later this year.
