New York Post ^ | April 3, 2023 | Andrew Court

Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) spiked significantly across the Big Apple following the lifting of lockdown restrictions, new data from the New York City Health Department reveals.

The agency’s stats show chlamydia cases rose 9% between 2020 and 2021, while the number of females diagnosed with primary and secondary syphilis surged by 28.7%.

The “significant” rise in infections has prompted public officials to plead with raunchy residents to urgently get tested to stop further spread. Some centers are now repurposing lab equipment used for COVID tests to screen for chlamydia and gonorrhea, the department said in a press release regarding the rise in infections.

Keep your pecker in your pants and you have nothing to worry about!

I guess that’s pretty old school now but it always worked for us old farts.

I was wondering at first about the involvement of a high performance Subaru STI.

“When did we switch to STI vs. STD”

They - not “we” - switched to STI when the woke/Marxist academics started proclaiming that “disease” “stigmitized” individuals while an “infection” does not. Never mind that with an STI you get an STD. They still think an STI makes the person sound more like a victim and THAT is why the change - another set of social “victims”. But, again, never mind the fact that rarely do monomamous married couples get an STI/STD, that almost always STI/STD “victims” made some bad choices (most of the time that’s the case). Again, they want to neutralize the choices people make, as though the choices do not matter. Even if someone makes bad choices, if something bad happens they are just “victims” of what happened. not of their own choices.

Loved this bit...

‘“Hooking up is healthy and as New York City continues to reopen, residents have reconnected,” the officials stated...’

Wow.

Simply follow God’s laws and sexually transmitted infections or diseases will disappear.

Back in the day (of course that was well over 55 years ago) I was considered a handsome young stud, especially in my USMC dress blues.

Learned something pretty quick; the ones that were easy for me were probably easy for every other guy, and I was never one for “sloppy seconds”.

That was back in what most folks my age called the HIPPY DAYS of free love and free sex, only cost was at short arm inspection, those medical records go directly into your SRB and are grounds for other than honorable discharge.

It was called discharge for “MORAL TURPITUDE”!

Qualified the individual for a “other than honorable, bad conduct, or dishonorable” discharge.

I made damn sure mine was Honorable; do your job, keep your nose clean, follow lawful orders, and complete your time with no STD’s in your record book.

VD, VENEREAL DISEASES. Why do we always go along with the changes of terms? Blue was once the color of Republican, Red was the color of communists and Democrats. Control the language and you control the people.

The above examples are not big things, but they fill in the empty spots on our nations turn to the Dark Empire.
