What says "progressive" more than free love and sex and STD's.............
Hamilton County has a "mini-epidemic" of sexually-transmitted diseases, says the author of a new report gauging the region's health.
The county's rate of syphilis is almost nine times higher than the nation's, while gonorrhea and chlamydia rates are double and triple, respectively, the national rates, according to the report, "Indicators of Healthy Communities," released Monday.
"We don't like to talk about it, but we have a problem here. We have a horrible problem locally that we need to address," said Eddie Hooker, an emergency medicine physician and associate professor of health services administration at Xavier University.
In 2010, the incidence rate for syphilis in Hamilton County was 32 per 100,000, compared to 3.6 for the U.S. and 2.0 for Ohio.
For some reason, I've never feared an STD. As a backwoods, gun loving conservative, I must have a natural immunity to such diseases. Or maybe it's because I keep it in my pants.
