Alberta has reported some of the highest syphilis rates in the country, prompting a province-wide public health response. While rates of infectious syphilis have increased within heterosexual populations, 2S/GBTQ+ communities continue to be disproportionately affected. Contributing factors include barriers to regular testing, limited awareness of prevention and treatment options, and increased stigma.
This action plan presents targeted recommendations to address syphilis within Alberta's 2S/GBTQ+ communities through prevention, screening, and treatment.
