Transcript:

We have seen historic increases in the case of congenital syphilis, which is a syphilis that happens when mothers who are infected with syphilis pass the infection in uterus during the pregnancy, and the result can be miscarriage or stillbirth.

The good news is that congenital syphilis can be prevented if persons who are pregnant get tested and treated for syphilis 30 days before delivery.

Pregnant? Or thinking about it? Ask to be tested for syphilis.
