STDs in Canada — the numbers behind the stigma
Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) reports show climbing chlamydia and gonorrhoea diagnoses; tens of thousands live with HIV while treatment outcomes improve; herpes and HPV affect far larger groups than headline figures suggest due to asymptomatic carriage and uneven testing. MeetPositives exists between stigma and that reality.
