Public health officials say the number of new syphilis cases -- especially among gay men -- has increased at such an alarming rate in the past year they are calling it an epidemic.
Early-stage cases of syphilis increased by 25 percent in 2010 compared with the year before, according to the San Francisco Department of Public Health.
From January 2010 through November 2010, the number of early cases of syphilis reported was 582 -- an all-time high in The City. At the height of the last syphilis epidemic in 2004, San Francisco had 552 reported cases, officials said.
"We've got one month left to calculate 2010 and we've already surpassed our most reported. It's troubling," said Kyle Bernstein, an epidemiologist for The City's health department.
One of the most alarming facts of these cases is that it doesn't appear that syphilis is emerging in a new population, which means more gay men are becoming infected with the disease, according to Bernstein.
There are no increases in women or heterosexual men, Bernstein said. A typical patient is a gay white man in his 40s or 50s.
Additionally, nearly one-third of all patients who tested positive reported using methamphetamine in the previous 12 months and 60 percent were HIV positive.
"When using meth, condom negotiation may not be easy," Bernstein said.
Magnet, a clinic that offers free testing for sexually transmitted diseases, also has seen an increase in the number of syphilis cases. Magnet clinical nurse manager Tim Ryan suggested carriers are unknowingly spreading the disease.
All too often, he said, a patient will see a primary care physician for a rash that appears during the secondary phase of syphilis and not be able to get a proper diagnosis.
"It's not because the doctor is incompetent -- it's because they've not seen a case in maybe two years," Ryan said.
Because of this epidemic, Bernstein said the health department plans to increase education and awareness. In 2004, during the last epidemic, The City launched a "Healthy Penis" campaign that promoted and encouraged men to get tested every three to six months. At that time, clinical visits did increase, but Bernstein said the department will need to revamp any future campaigns.
What that will look like, Bernstein said, is still unknown.
"I think the idea to get screened is more saturated in The City than previously," he said. "But we do need to reinvent the campaign and promote screening."
Take Action:
- Boycott advertisers of Glenn Beck - Fox News. Glenn Beck is anti-gay rights.
- Update: DADT has been repealed. President Obama has kept his promise!
- Boycott Bill O'Reilly and FOX News and their advertisers. Bill discussed a French commercial by McDonalds that was meant to show that McDonalds is Gay Friendly. Bill said what is next? Is McDonalds going to be Al-Qaida friendly as well? Imagine - Bill O'Reilly compares Gays to Al-Qaida!
- Boycott Arizona the home of "hater" - U.S. Senator John McCain. Arizona's Hateful anti-Immigration Law - encourages racial profiling and increases hatred towards minorities. A remedy: Demand Republicans to support Immigration Reform (The Dream Act). Further, Senator McCain voted against ending DADT and Blocked Immigration reform!
- Boycott Target, Best Buy, Gold's Gym - for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations. Update: (12/26/2010): Target is continuing to donate to anti-gay groups/causes/politicians.
- End DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act). Prevents Federal employees and Gays in the Military from gaining equal benefits. Prevents Gay Partners from gaining equal benefits.
- Pass ENDA (Employee Non-Discrimination Act). ENDA would prevent employment discrimination of LGBT workforce.
- Boycott Salvation Army as they will not hire Gays! "DO NOT DONATE TO THEM."

Ariz. Rep. Giffords strong supporter of LGBT rights, HRC responds to shooting
by GoPride.com News Staff / Jan 8, 2011
Tucson, AZ --- Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ), who was shot in the head during a public event in Tucson on Saturday, is a member of the House LGBT Equality Caucus and is a strong supporter of gay rights including gay marriage.
The Congresswoman was shot and an aide was killed Saturday when an assailant open fire in an area where the lawmaker was meeting with constituents, according to media reports.
Also killed was U.S. District Judge John Roll and a young child. Giffords remains in critical condition.
Police have identified the suspect as 22-year-old Jared Laughner.
The 40-year-old Giffords, who's husband is astronaut Mark Kelly, was reelected in November after a bitter battle with Republican and Tea Party favorite Jesse Kelly.
Giffords is pro-choice, supports embryonic stem cell research and gay marriage.
The Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender civil rights organization, reacted to the tragic shooting. HRC President Joe Solmonese released the following statement:
"We are shocked and saddened by the events involving Congresswoman Giffords and our hearts go out to her and the other victims of this awful tragedy. Gabby Giffords is a champion for LGBT equality and a principled leader for Arizona. We wish her a speedy recovery as our thoughts and prayers are with her family as well as with the families of all of those touched by today's horrific violence."
A candlelight vigil is planned for Rep. Giffords Saturday night at 6 p.m. at the Arizona State Capitol.
