The increase of STIs in Australia
In Australia, the prevalence of many STIs has risen over the past two decades with Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, and Syphilis increasing significantly. This sparked the Stop the rise of STIs campaign to encourage regular sexual health testing in Queensland, particularly amongst younger people. However, anyone who is sexually active is at risk of catching an infection. Better2Know’s STI tests and screens are suitable for anyone over the age of 18.
What is the difference between an STD and an STI?
Would you rather have an infection or a disease? Most people say infection. An STD is a Sexually Transmitted Disease, and STI is a Sexually Transmitted Infection. The two terms cover the same infections and diseases, STI is the newer acronym.
