Medical care for non-COVID-related issues slowed drastically during the height of the pandemic and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is warning it might catch up to us this summer as the rates of sexually transmitted diseases are expected to rise significantly as more people return to public life.
A study published in May by the American Journal of Preventative Medicine found screenings for sexually transmitted infections dropped by 40% during the first three months of the pandemic and continued to trail 2019 numbers for the rest of the year.
