@ToolPackinMama Worse is that with increases in cases, there is also an increase in those who do not treat it and it seemingly goes away, only to return years latter in a deadly form. Some years ago did some outreach for local Health dept on syphilis - surprised me as I read up to prepare that more people were dying from latent syphilis than HIV . This was from a 2005 morality morbidity report from CDC.
