Description:

In March 2020, STD program resources shifted to help control the spread of COVID-19. This shift in resources occurred at a critical time: in 2019, reported STDs reached an all-time high for the 6th consecutive year. Although reported cases dropped during the beginning months of the pandemic, they have since surged, a sign that STD rates might have increased even more overall—an added challenge for programs with diminished resources.
