🚨 Syphilis is back—and spreading fast. Rates are higher than they’ve been in decades, and many people don’t even know they’re infected.
✅ Early detection saves lives.
Look for these signs:
• A painless sore (chancre) in the ge***al, throat, or a**l area
• Rash on palms or soles
• Flu-like symptoms or patchy hair loss
💉 The good news: Syphilis is treatable with antibiotics—especially when caught early.
👉 Protect yourself:
• Get tested regularly
• Use condoms
• Talk openly with partners
