Problems and approaches in the surveillance and control of sexually transmitted diseases: the Cuban experience.

Abstract:

:Cuba has a comprehensive National Health System which delivers primary and secondary health care to 100% of the population. Communicable disease control and preventive medicine programs are implemented through this System. The National Syphilis Control Program is described briefly as an example of a successful control program for sexually transmitted disease. Data defining the magnitude of the problems of gonorrhea and pelvic inflammatory disease are not complete. A program for improved gonorrhea surveillance and control is just beginning. Further improvements and refinements in this program are described.
