Why are the numbers worse now than they were 24 years ago?“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.The CDC recently released its STI surveillance report for 2022, the most recent verified data set available.
