Description

Today on MedNet21, we're going to discuss Sexually Transmitted Diseases.

The first part of the presentation will review important information about the rising number of

For the second half of  this webcast, you are going to find out how a collaboration between the emergency department physicians and the infectious disease physicians is improving the identification and treatment of patients with syphilis.
