Chlamydia Incidence Rate

County: Brown
Measurement Period: 2022
Filter: none (all Counties)
This indicator shows the chlamydia incidence rate in cases per 100,000 population.

Why is this important?

Chlamydia, one of the most frequently reported bacterial sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the United States, is caused by the bacterium, Chlamydia trachomatis. Although symptoms of chlamydia are usually mild or absent, serious complications that cause irreversible damage, including infertility, can occur "silently" before a woman ever recognizes an infection. Chlamydia can also be transmitted via discharge from the penis of an infected man. Under-reporting of chlamydia is substantial because most people with chlamydia are not aware of their infections and do not seek testing.
