Arthur is a doctor doing advanced training in Sexual Health. He joins Hannah on the show to discuss two sexually transmitted infections that many have heard about – HIV & Syphilis. So much has changed over the past 40 years with these infections, and a lot of the misunderstanding and stigma that was prevalent in the 80s remains today.
Arthur explains:🎙 what HIV is, how it is acquired and transmitted🎙 who is at risk of HIV🎙 how and when you should have a HIV test🎙 current patterns of syphilis in Australia🎙 how syphilis is managed and complications of not getting treatment🎙 how these infections can affect pregnancy
