Abstract
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.
Keywords: sexually transmitted diseases, reportable diseases
