Findings Congress finds the following: (1) The CDC estimates 20,000,000 new sexually transmitted infections (STIs) occur each year in the United States, and 50 percent of sexually active Americans will contract a STI at some point in their lives, the majority of which may be asymptomatic for an extended amount of time. (2) Over 1,200,000 people in the United States are living with HIV, and someone is infected with HIV in the United States every 9.5 minutes. (3) HIV/AIDS and STIs are syndemics. HIV infection can increase a person’s risk for acquiring certain STIs, as well as affect their frequency, severity, and healing time, while STIs increase the risk of HIV transmission, impaired fertility, reproductive tract cancer, and adverse pregnancy outcomes. (4) Many common long-term and initially asymptomatic STIs such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, syphilis, inflammatory pelvic disease, viral hepatitis, and HIV/AIDS remain undiagnosed, or diagnosed at later stages, leading to increased rates of mortality, morbidity, disability, and transmission. (5) In fact, the CDC estimates over 3.6 million Americans are living with chronic hepatitis and most do not know they are infected. Chronic hepatitis B can remain asymptomatic for years and, left undiagnosed and untreated, can lead to serious complications. Additionally, individuals infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) are at risk for chronic liver disease or other HCV-related chronic diseases decades
