Abstract

During the initial height of COVID-19 in New York State excluding New York City in March 2020, reports of sexually transmitted infections declined. Prediction models developed to estimate the incidence of early syphilis and gonorrhea during the COVID-19 pandemic were used to study impact on STI diagnoses/reporting and inform sexual health program planning.
