Georgia Ranks #4 For Syphillis

Georgia No. 4 For Syphilis by April Burkhart.  Online Athens.  March 2, 2013.  

Georgia's No 4 ranking goes along with seventh for gonorrhea and eight for chlamydia.  The article contains a discussion of symptoms, the impact on Northeast Georgia, and Georgia efforts to confront the issue.  A public health official stated that there often is a lack of the basic information about how the diseases are transmitted.  Patients sometimes "have no clue" of how they obtain the disease.
