Introduction

What are the STI test options in New Jersey?

While there are only three states that are smaller than New Jersey, it is still the home of approximately 8,958,013 people. There are only 10 states that are more densely populated. As of 2014 it was number three on the list of wealthiest states. Few other states are more religiously and ethnically diverse than NJ is.

There are large colleges and universities in New Jersey such as Rutgers and Princeton. Many of the college students spend their summers at the Jersey shore, with Atlantic City being the most popular beach side destination. In this city and in others throughout the state, private STD testing is offered. There are countless STD clinics in the state that are all prepared to assist.

Additional STD Test Statistics in New Jersey

As of 2013, New Jersey was sixth on the list of states with number of HIV diagnoses for the year. At that time, 2,169 state residents, both adolescents and adults, were HIV positive. Of the 50 states, it is 36 on the list of most cases of primary and secondary syphilis. It was number 45 on the list of most cases of chlamydia and number 31 on the list of most cases of gonorrhea. In total, over 36,000 people in the state had been diagnosed with either HIV or AIDS that year. There are many HIV clinics throughout the state and the biggest one treated 1,200 people that had been diagnosed with HIV or AIDS.

In 2014, 29,950 of the residents had chlamydia while 6,536 had gonorrhea and 1,172 had syphilis. However, there had not been a case of a baby being born with syphilis since 2012. The state’s Planned Parenthood center, through data analysis, determined that from 2009 to 2014 STD rose by 27%.

Parts of the state have seen a rise in the number of people diagnosed with STDs following a statewide budget cut that hurt low-income residents at risk of contracting an STD through unsafe sex. Many health planning clinics were closed following this budget cut, leaving residents with fewer resources to teach them how to avoid contracting an STD. It also cut down on the amount of STD testing that health planning clinics had been offering needy community members.

STD Testing and Sexual Health Education in New Jersey

Preventing STDs is an important goal for the state. As a result, high school students throughout the state benefit from the state’s Teen Prevention Education Program, also referred to as Teen PEP, provides students with opportunities to learn about STD prevention from their peers. The program is run with the participation of the Princeton Center for Leadership Training and the New Jersey Department of Health as well as the Health Interested Teen’s Own Program on Sexuality.

Sex ed courses are taught in high schools throughout the state courtesy of Teen PEP. Parents have a choice of whether or not they want to enroll their child in the class, which is not a required part of the curriculum. Only junior and senior year students are permitted to take this class.

Students that have completed the Teen PEP classes are given the tools and materials they need to participate in subsequent sessions of the class, helping them pass their new found knowledge along to their peers. They are permitted to teach workshops that focus on STIs, STDs and HIV/AIDS education. These workshops can be attended by freshman and sophomore students as well as their parents.

Many urgent care clinics throughout the state are equipped to test people for both herpes and HIV. Those in need of a test do not need to make an appointment in advance. Most of the clinics in the state will test for genital herpes, HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia and syphilis.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases and Demographics in New Jersey

While only 14% of New Jersey’s population is African American, 53% of them are suffering from AIDS or HIV. Over the course of one year 96,000 residents were tested for HIV and 640 of them received confirmation that they had been infected with the disease. Of those 640 people, 65% of the HIV positive cases were African Americans. As a result, the HIV Prevention Fund of New Jersey spent 63% of their funding to educate and inform African Americans affected by the disease.

Certain cities in the state are more affected by STDs than others. For example, in Atlantic County, despite the small number of residents, 1,589 of them had been diagnosed with AIDS or HIV by 2009. The number of people throughout the state suffering from HIV or AIDS was the same as the population of Atlantic City.

Over the years cities in New Jersey have seen a decline in the number of people diagnosed with HIV or AIDS. While in 1990, 171 cases of HIV or AIDS were reported by 2007 the number had dropped to 49.

South Jersey AIDS Alliance CEO Keith Egan has stated that the reason these diagnoses have gone down is because the public was becoming better educated about STDs and scientific advancements have made STDs, especially HIV and AIDS, easier to fight.

There are now a large number of clinics and testing centers opened throughout the state to ensure that all residents can be tested safely and confidentially.
