Daphne, AL, a city in Baldwin County, is under threat from an STD outbreak that's continuing to grow.
In 2016, the county reported 606 chlamydia cases. Two years later, in 2018, it recorded 654 new infections.
Gonorrhea infections are increasing with 160 in 2016 jumping to 218 in 2018.
Primary and secondary syphilis diagnoses are also of concern. In 2017, Baldwin County listed five cases. The next year, in 2018, it had nine. In 2016, the county had four early latent syphilis infections, and in 2018, the number of diagnoses doubled to four.
Late latent syphilis is another concern with four new cases in 2016 rising to ten in 2018.
Officials at the county health department are concerned about the area's growing STD rate and are asking all persons that are sexually active to seek regular screenings.
More than a dozen health centers offer STD testing in Daphne and the surrounding areas. Many of these locations provide treatment and aftercare services, too.
The Franklin Primary Health Center Incorporated operates the Loxley Family Medical Center on the corner of E Relham Dr and N Cypress St in Loxley.
Family Health offers screenings at the Dauphin Island Parkway Health Center on Dauphin Island Pkwy in Mobile. It runs another clinic at the Downtown Health Center on N Bayou St in Mobile.
Some centers may offer free STD testing. These locations may limit the types of STIs they screen for, and it's possible they'll ask for proof of income. Additionally, facilities with free services may not have a physician on-site for questions.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention1 (CDC) recommends screening for the most common STDs, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, herpes 1, herpes 2, and HIV for both men and women. In addition, the CDC suggests women get screened for trichomoniasis.
SaferSTD recommends searching for locations that offer a 10-test panel which tests for the most common bacteria and viral STDs in the U.S. with additional premium add-ons like early HIV detection, if needed.
The CDC2 provides detailed STD testing information as to when you should get tested. In summary, you should get tested today if you are sexually active, never been tested before, have had unprotected sex in the past, or if you exhibit symptoms.
According to the World Health Organization3, the majority of STI cases reported every day, more than one million, are asymptomatic; another reason to get tested today.
You should get tested again in 90 days to rule out STDs that have specific exposure waiting times, including HIV.
STD testing can be a quick and simple process, depending on the type of test you choose and where you get tested. Some may require an oral or genital swab, a urine test or blood sample, or a physical exam to check your genital area for signs of an STD.
SaferSTD has identified preferred providers that require only a urine test, a blood sample, or both without a physical exam.
The speed at which you receive your STD testing results depends on where you get tested. Before you choose your location, find out how long testing results will take.
At-home STD testing results are usually 3-5 business days, depending on the manufacturer of your test. You also need to take into account the amount of time it takes to receive the test or pick one up, perform the test, and ship it back, before the lab can analyze your results and report back to you.
If you test at a public facility such as a neighborhood clinic, you may have to wait a week, if not more for the results, which could delay treatment. If you test through a private facility, they have the fastest turnaround within 1-3 business days.

Several at-home STD options and public testing locations can cost up to $250, with most on the higher end, depending on the brand and type of testing. Public testing fees also vary based on income and welfare eligibility.
With private testing, you may save money on a low-cost comprehensive 10-test panel that tests for the most common bacterial and viral STDs in the United States.
