HIV AIDS STD & STIs

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) remain the major Global public health challenge. Biological factors in women place at greater risk than men for the severe health consequences of STDs. The two major commonly reported infectious diseases in America is chlamydia and Gonorrhea which imposes a particular risk to the women’s health, as both can result in infertility if left untreated. Global Trends of STD are more toward viral origin as compare to bacterial origin. Epidemiology of infectious diseases helped to develop methodology used in clinical research, public health studies and to a lesser extent basic research in the biological sciences.
