Syphilis rates in Texas continue to climb, alarming healthcare workers who see the highest increases among pregnant people and newborns. A shortage of treatment is complicating efforts to combat it.


About twice a week, a pregnant patient turns up in Dr. Irene Stafford’s obstetrics office in Houston with syphilis, a sexually transmittable disease that affects more newborns in Texas than anywhere else in the country.

For a seasoned professional like Stafford, the sheer numbers are startling. She’s been treating congenital syphilis with increasing frequency in recent years in a city that has the state’s highest newborn infection rates

Wharfie,
Florida failed to learn lessons from NJ and NY. Remember when they were #1 and 2 in deaths? Remember when people were after Cuomo because of his nursing home policy?
Exactly.

We knew pretty early on in the pandemic that COVID-19 affected seniors more than other age groups.

That should have led to DeathSantis taking COVID-19 MORE seriously, given the high population of retirees in his state.

Instead, he pursues his policies of denial, then uses his elderly population as an excuse for his failures.

What you proved is that despite being #2 is % of elderly, FL came in 1oth so it's obvious that FL did do something right.
NJ didn't even make the list of highest % of elderly yet came in 12th in deaths.... Proving the D's don't know shit about Covid
