Do you know how many people have chlamydia? Syphilis? No?
Me either. But it's a lot. Depending on the group evaluated, chlamydia rates among young women range from 7-15%. And with STDs, there is always at least one other victim.
The holidays tend to be a time of seeing old friends and drinking with them. I see a lot of STDs after the holidays.

Background:
Trachoma, a chronic keratoconjunctivitis caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, is the world's commonest infectious cause of blindness.
