Confirmed STD cases down in ND
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Sexually transmitted diseases among North Dakotans are trending downward.
The state Health Department says that through the first six months of the year, confirmed cases of both chlamydia and gonorrhea are down 11 percent from last year.
STD program manager Julie Wagendorf says young people still should be aware of the dangers. She says the highest rates are in people between the ages of 15 and 24.
