Every day, 1 person in the world is infected with one million cases of sexually transmitted diseases.
According to the BBC, compared with 20 12, there is no progress in global STD prevention and control, with trichomonas1500,000 cases, chlamydia1270,000 cases, 87 million new cases of gonorrhea and 6.3 million cases of syphilis infection. On average, 1 person in the world suffers from the above-mentioned sexually transmitted diseases, and there are many.
Except trichomonas is a parasite, the other three diseases are caused by bacterial infection. Common symptoms include genital secretions, micturition pain and non-menstrual bleeding, but many cases have no symptoms. Serious complications such as pelvic inflammatory disease and infertility caused by chlamydia and gonorrhea, as well as cardiovascular diseases and nervous system diseases caused by syphilis. If a woman is infected with sexually transmitted diseases during pregnancy, it may lead to stillbirth, premature delivery, low birth weight, pneumonia, blindness and congenital malformation.
Most patients are asymptomatic, which aggravates the spread of the disease.
The Guardian reported that the World Health Organization said that there is too little attention and data on sexually transmitted diseases in the world, and some sexually transmitted diseases will get out of control because bacteria are resistant to antibiotics. Dr Melanie Taylor, the author of the report, pointed out that the global health burden of sexually transmitted diseases is very high. Although most diseases can be cured, too many patients have no symptoms, so they are not treated and tested, and the risk of spreading the disease to their partners or even babies is high.

Experts urge patients to seek medical advice and worry about drug resistance.
Dr. Teodora Dorawi, the official in charge of sexually transmitted diseases in the World Health Organization, added that sexually transmitted diseases are more common than generally believed, but they have not been paid enough attention. In particular, infected people are insulted and neglected, so that they dare not admit that they are infected and dare not seek medical treatment. He called on all countries not to cut their budgets for the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases and to formulate sexual safety policies.
In addition, he suggested that medical service providers should "respect everyone's right to make sexual choices in line with personal values" and standardize the discussion about sex. "People should be open to their sexual orientation in order to get care and learn how to protect themselves. He also shouted to the patients, "Sex should be rational and responsible, taking into account safety and fun. Use condoms correctly. If you suspect that you are ill, please see a doctor as soon as possible.
Tim Jinks Kesi emphasized the drug resistance of sexually transmitted bacteria, such as supergonorrhea, which is almost incurable and has caused problems in Britain and Australia. He called for investment in new antibiotics and treatments.
