While California does not require its schools to teach sexual education classes, most do offer the programs to students with parental permission. The state does require that all schools have a comprehensive HIV/AIDS program, which has been effective at slowing the spread of the disease. There are also schools that still use the government supported abstinence only program, though the number of districts is growing smaller.
With the broad range of sexual education programs available in different districts it can be hard to ensure every student understands the risks associated with being sexually active. Some officials point to the success of the abstinence only programs as an effective method of stopping the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, but it has only had positive results at slowing down the number of teenage pregnancies.
As long as the state does not require comprehensive sexual education programs in its schools, students and parents won’t understand why it is so important to get tested for STDs regularly. Not all sexually transmitted viruses are spread solely through intercourse, and not all show immediate symptoms that indicate an individual might be sick.
This is why regular Herpes testing in Perris Valley is so important, and the simple procedure could help prevent future embarrassing flare-ups. Regular HIV testingin Perris Valley is also vital to your continue good health, and the painless exam could potentially save your life. Until everyone understands why it is important to get tested regularly, city leaders can expect to see the STI rates continue to rise.
Demographics play a key role in the sexually transmittable disease rates for an area, and this is true for Perris Valley. Even though its close proximity to the city of Riverside does have an effect on the area’s sexually transmitted infection rates, it is not the only reason the percentages are so high.
A lack of comprehensive sexual education programs in some city schools is making it difficult for health officials to stress the importance of practicing safe sex and getting tested regularly. A language barrier is also contributing to the problem, especially in Hispanic neighborhoods.
The rural community also sees a large number of migratory workers coming and going, which is also contributing to the spread of STDs in the city and across the state.
A shortage of community health clinics often results in long waits which has many people putting off this important health step. Lower income families often can’t afford regular testing, and often these are the same people that engage in risky behaviors.
Adults staying healthy longer and sexually active is also causing the STI rate to rise, especially among older Caucasian men. Strong religious beliefs and conservative values can make it difficult for teens and adults to get the education that they need to protect themselves, and it also makes it difficult for them to admit that they might have an infection. Until everyone understands how important it is to get tested regularly, the sexually transmitted disease rates will continue to increase.
Before you spend an afternoon shopping in nearby Riverside or take a scenic plane ride it is important to take a few minutes and take care of your sexual health. Even though there are community health clinics in the city, many people are still putting off this important test. If you want to avoid the long wait and any familiar faces you can schedule confidential STD testing with one simple phone call. The simple procedure only takes a few minutes, which still leaves you plenty of time to enjoy the rest of your day.
