Sexual diseases are spreading fast in Hungary!

According to borsonline.hu, the rate of people suffering in sexually transmitted infections is higher in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County than the national average. However, even the national average has constantly been rising in the last few years.

The real danger is that they are symptom-free

The three most frequent sexually transmitted disease in Hungary are Syphilis, Chlamydia, and Gonorrhoea. The biggest threat is that many people do not even know that they are infected since these illnesses are symptom-free at the beginning. Thus, they put at risk their partners who do not even suspect that they can be infected.

Based on the healthcare statistics, in 2017 29 women were suffering from Syphilis in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County

from which 12 were pregnant.

In fact, for their babies, the infection can cause permanent damage. According to borsonline.hu, this kind of disease is frequent in regions without a proper health culture, but transit tourism also raises its prevalence. Furthermore, venereal diseases are widespread among people living in a dangerous social environment. Catching Syphilis is easy, but the healing process is lengthy. The situation is the same in case of Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea. They are curable, but

patients need permanent treatment.
