Short Abstract:

New CDC data shows that during March to April in 2020, reported STD cases drastically decreased compared to exactly a year prior. However, during this time period there was also a resurgence in gonorrhea and syphilis cases later in the year, meaning that overall STDs may have actually increased during 2020.
