At least 26 sexually transmissible infections have been identified to date. Only five of these, however, are currently reportable on a national basis. While the true incidence of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) is underrestimated because of the number that are non-notifiable, it has become increasingly clear that these non-reportable STDs are at least as common as those that are reportable.
迄今为止,已确定至少有26种性传播感染。然而,目前在全国范围内仅需报告其中的5种。由于许多性传播疾病(STD)无需上报,其实际发病率被低估,但越来越明显的是,这些无需报告的性传播疾病至少与需报告的性传播疾病一样常见。
