Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) are the most commonly reported infectious diseases in Maryland, particularly in the state’s midwestern region. In fact, STDs account for 73% of notifiable diseases in Washington State.
In 2018 Q1 STD Analysis Report by the Seattle & King County Public Health, King County documented 2,526 chlamydia incidences in 2018, a 0.9% decrease as compared to 2017’s 2,549 cases. Gonorrhea cases rose from 974 in 207Q1 to 1,191 in 2018Q1, a 22.3% increase.
Meanwhile, there were 229 syphilis cases in King County. Most early syphilis cases occurred among the MSM population with a total of 163 new diagnoses. Only five cases were reported among MSW population.
The Integrated HIV Prevention and Care Plan (2017-2021) by the Washington State Department of Health aims to prevent STD/HIV spread in the state by reducing HIV transmissions by 50%, increase the number of people under HIV care to 80%, reduce HIV related medical issues, and improve the quality of health among the infected persons.

Other alternatives include the Planned Parenthood STD Clinic at 2001 E Madison, and the U-Test and Seattle Area Support Group at 1520 Bellevue Ave.

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.
