ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic impacted STD services. Of 59 U.S.-funded STD programs, 91% reported a great deal to moderate impact from staff reassignment in April 2020, with 28% of respondents reporting permanent reassignment of DIS staff. Telemedicine was implemented in 44%. Decreases in STD case reports were reported by most jurisdictions.
