Asst. Prof. Dubravka Vuković, MD, PhD, Head of the Department of Dermatovenereology at KBC Split, confirmed the increased incidence.She identifies changes in sexual behavior—including those following the introduction of prophylactic therapies for HIV prevention—as one of the possible reasons."One of the factors contributing to the increased incidence in recent years is a return to more permissive sexual behavior, partly due to so-called prophylactic therapies," said Vuković.This refers to PrEP and PEP—therapies used to prevent HIV infection in specific high-risk groups."Once HIV effectively became a chronic condition—after infectious disease specialists managed to stabilize it—people let their guard down again, and now we are seeing a resurgence of some virtually forgotten sexually transmitted diseases," she said.We asked the doctor to what extent the fact that Split is a major tourist destination influences the number of these sexually transmitted infections.
"I recently attended a meeting with colleagues from Osijek, and they mentioned that they rarely see sexually transmitted diseases in their clinics. As a tourist city, we are certainly at the forefront—perhaps in a negative sense—when it comes to these infections," she replied.The growing antibiotic resistance of the pathogen that causes syphilis also presents a particular problem. Specifically, it is treated with penicillin. Consequently, Dr. Vuković warned, there is a possibility that we could eventually run out of therapeutic options.https://dalmatinskiportal.hr/zaboravljene-spolno-prenosive-bolesti-sifilis-i-gonoreja-u-porastu-u-splitu
