Anyone who is sexually active can be infected with a sexually transmitted disease (STD), and according to the CDC, Georgia ranks third in the nation for syphilis cases and is among the top 10 states for cases of gonorrhea and Chlamydia. The North Georgia Health District is taking steps in our part of the state to combat these rankings by implementing a “Get Tested for STDs” campaign. Please click on these news items for more information. Also, please view these "Get Tested" posters (in both English and Spanish) - you may print them on 11" by 17" (tabloid) paper, or please contact us for free copies of the posters at (706) 272-2125. Individuals may take a five-minute survey to assess their STD risk by logging onto the website www.stdwizard.org.
