Chlamydia is the most common bacterial sexually transmitted infection in Sweden and it is becoming more common with companies that sell tests and treatments on the internet for it and several other venereal diseases.
- We have seen in recent years that it has become more and more common and there is also a risk of unnecessary antibiotic treatment, says Malin Bengnér.
Infection protection and health care in the Jönköping County Region try to inform people about their tests through field work and campaigns.
- We try to talk about the right to be tested at no cost when we are out and talking and through campaigns, says the infection control doctor Malin Bengnér.
