Population and Public Health Branch, Manitoba Health, Seniors and Long-Term Care, Winnipeg, MB, Canada.
Setting: Manitoba experiences sexually transmitted and blood-borne infection (STBBI) incidence rates above the national average and fundamental public health sector responses face human resource constraints.
Intervention: Manitoba implemented a paraprofessional role, the Communicable Disease Technician (CD Tech), to complete low-complexity STBBI investigations and support STBBI testing, care engagement initiatives, provider reporting, harm reduction supply distribution, and community engagement. Secondary roles included tuberculosis directly observed treatment (DOT) and virtual DOT, and flu and COVID immunization support.

Article Synopsis
- Serovar L1-L3 of Chlamydia trachomatis causes lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV), with rising cases among HIV-positive men who have sex with men (MSM), making differentiation between LGV and other CT infections crucial for treatment.
- A study analyzed 2,083 CT infections from 1,479 patients in Austria between 2014 and 2021, revealing that LGV was found in 15% of cases and accounted for 23% of rectal CT infections in MSM.
- Most LGV cases were among MSM, often HIV-positive, and frequently included concurrent syphilis; interestingly, 45% of LGV cases were asymptomatic, indicating the need

The incidence of syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and herpes simplex has increased over the last decade, despite the numerous prevention strategies. Worldwide scientists report a surge in drug-resistant infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Antigenic variations in syphilis enable long-term infection, but benzathine penicillin G maintains its efficiency, whereas macrolides should be recommended with caution.
