Alaska fighting uphill battle to reduce gonorrhea rate SPIKE: State ranks ninth in the nation as STD continues to spread. An outbreak of gonorrhea across Alaska that began in 2009 is continuing this year, and health officials say they are trying new ways to curb it. Between 2008 and 2009, the number of gonorrhea cases in Alaska rose an alarming 69 percent, according to a new U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report. State health officials began calling attention to a spike in gonorrhea cases in Southwest Alaska more than a year ago and highlighted the statewide rise in March. The new report shows that Alaska ranks ninth in the nation for its rate of gonorrhea, compared with its ranking in recent years in the mid-20s. Alaska also is second in the nation for its high rate of chlamydia, another sexually transmitted disease that often is transmitted along with gonorrhea. "Hopefully, the high numbers now are more of a success story in that people are coming in and getting tested. Though I am surprised the numbers haven't declined," said Susan Jones, the state's HIV/STD program manager. "It's this continuing rise in numbers that we haven't been able to get under control." Symptoms can be mild, which may delay people coming in for testing and treatment, allowing them to continue to spread the disease, health officials say. Back in the 1970s, a man with a gonorrhea infection would have experienced such painful burning and heavy discharge that he would have likely gone to the doctor within a week. Now, with the current, milder strain, he might not seek help for months. The health consequences for untreated gonorrhea can be severe: People can become infertile, a result more common for women than for men, Jones said. Health officials will contact sexual partners of infected people and urge them to get tested and treated, without saying how they may have been exposed. "I like to say, 'Care enough to get your partners identified and treated,'" Jones said. Read more: http://www.adn.com/2010/11/25/1573143/alaska-fighting-uphill-battle.html#ixzz16dfheTtU

Alaska Natives have higher rates than other groups, health officials say. For Alaska Native women, the rate was 656 per 100,000 Skip continues his racist ways.

Skivvy has a commie hate on against the entire state of Alaska because he hates two people on this board. Skivvy isn't very bright.
Well, [war's] got to do something for attention, his multiple personalities aren't speaking to him any more, and his imaginary friends keep finding excuses not to come over.
Have someone read the article to you. The entire article.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Skip didn't write it. Blow me, again.
And the sheep will bleat their submission, Burma Shave.
Have someone read the article to you. It's longer than your attention span.

Your bumper sticker philosophy is why you need to hide behind so many screen names.
-----------------------------------------------------------
It's longer than your attention span. Did Skip, who you called a racist, write it? You want to attack somebody, attack the author, not the poster. Your credibility is less than zero. Blow me a third time. You must be getting full by now.
And the sheep will bleat their submission, Burma Shave.
Blow me.
And the sheep will bleat their submission, Burma Shave.
It's longer than your attention span. Have someone point out to you the author's name. It ain't Skip. You throw "racist" like a leftie WS. Blow me yet again.

As you've noted, whitey isn't right in the head.
Head? Head??? She must be right in the head now. She must be full. She left. Now back to serious mode. Why does WhiteSands blame you for the content of an article someone else wrote? All you did was post it for discussion, and she starts yelling, "RACIST!!!" I've no use for race-baiters.
And the sheep will bleat their submission, Burma Shave.

What's the rate for native Idahoans and their descendants?
Of COURSE he is. He's a drama-queen, pure and simple. He'll say anything to be noticed. The ultimate curse to him... is to be bozoed.
Getting tired of the bozoed calcon following me around on the 'net, wanting to discuss "tossing salad." Sorry, you sick rump-ranger. NOT interested.
Remember, Sarah Palin's Alaska is the real America, according to the baggers.
Yeah, yukko, mad puppy and eskimo represent real America. /sarc
You and the liberal pussies prove you are with each of your delusional posts.
The disease is being found across the state but is especially prevalent in northern and western Alaska and in Southcentral, Jones said.

For instance, teens can order free condoms or ask questions about STDs on a website run by the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium. The site is www.iknowmine.org, which refers to an individual's knowing his or her STD infection status.
