Chlamydia Coalition, NWHC team up to inform young women about chlamydia screening |
The National Chlamydia Coalition, convened by Partnership for Prevention and CDC, collaborated with the National Women’s Health Resource Center to update their web content to include information on the importance of chlamydia screening. Annual chlamydia screening tests for all sexually active women age 25 years and younger are recommended by the US Preventive Services Task Force and others. Partnership’s National Commission on Prevention Priorities estimates that if 90% of eligible women were routinely screened for chlamydia, 30,000 cases of pelvic inflammatory disease could be prevented each year.
