Provision of Sexually Transmitted Infection Services in a Mobile Clinic Reveals High Unmet Need in Remote Areas of South Africa: A Cross-sectional Study.

Background: The burden of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in areas of sub-Saharan Africa with poor access to health care services is not well documented. In remote areas of South Africa, we investigated the prevalence of STIs and approaches to providing STI services through a mobile clinic.

Methods: We recruited 251 adult women visiting a mobile clinic that normally provides general health education and screening services, but not STI care.
