Lantana, FL, is a coastal town in the Miami metropolitan area experiencing a high number of new STD infections. The outbreak is concerning. In 2015, Palm Beach County reported 5,374 new chlamydia cases, and in 2020, the county had 5,667 diagnoses. Gonorrhea is also rising, with 1,277 gonorrhea infections in 2015 and 1,587 in 2020. Syphilis is going up—the Miami metro had 320 total syphilis cases in 2015 and 547 in 2020.
Palm Beach County public health officials want to reduce the infection rate through STD testing and treatment. They're asking all sexually active individuals to seek regular STD screenings in the Lantana, FL area, to protect their partners and help stop the spread of the preventable infections.
Anyone seeking STD testing in Lantana, FL, can find several locations in the Palm Beach County area. Most sites include testing, treatment, and follow-up care.
One option is FoundCare Incorporated's Palm Springs Health Center on S. Congress Ave. in Palm Springs. Another possibility is the Health Council of Southeast Florida on Sandtree Dr. in Palm Beach Gardens for HIV and Hepatitis C screenings.
Testing is available at the Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach Count at the Lantana Lake Worth Health Center on Southwinds Dr.
Some of these locations might offer free STD testing. Don't jump just yet for a free appointment. Contact them to ensure they have availability. You don't want to wait too long for a comprehensive screening. These sites might ask for proof of income, too.
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.
