About

This indicator includes the combined number of reported cases of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis, based on standard case definitions. These infections are spread primarily through sexual contact and can cause a range of health issues if left untreated. Tracking the combined total helps illustrate the overall burden of STIs in the community and supports efforts in prevention and intervention. This statistic is expressed as a rate per 100,000 population, based on reported cases in a single year.
