==Syphilis cases soar to highest level in more than seven decades in the United States

There’s been a drastic uptick in the number of cases of syphilis in the United States, with babies particularly affected, new data shows.

“In the United States, syphilis was close to elimination in the 1990s, so we know it’s possible to reverse this epidemic,” Dr. Jonathan Mermin, director of CDC’s National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention, stated.

Dr. Nima Majlesi, Director of Medical Toxicology at Staten Island University Hospital, said there are two major reasons for the rise in cases.

“People are using condoms less and less frequently,” he declared, saying that public health messages have “de-emphasised” the importance of safe sex in recent years.

Secondly, Dr. Majlesi says syphilis has become so uncommon in recent decades that it now often goes unrecognised, even by doctors, in its early stages.

“We are diagnosing it a little later, so by the time we do, [the patient] may have already spread it,” he explained.

The disease— also called “The Great Pretender,” as its symptoms can look like many other diseases – is spread by direct contact with a syphilis sore during vaginal, anal or oral sex.

The sores are painless, meaning they often go untreated.

Four to 10 weeks after infection, a rash often develops across a sufferer’s body.

Without medical treatment, syphilis can subsequently spread to the brain, nervous system or eyes, potentially causing blindness, deafness, and paralysis.

Meanwhile, data shows there are also surging rates of congenital syphilis across the country.

Congenital syphilis occurs when an infected mother passes the infection on to the newborn. When transmitted during pregnancy, it can cause miscarriage, lifelong medical issues, and infant death.
