dc.description.abstractCongenital syphilis cases have dramatically increased, with reported cases increasing by 10 times the amount in 2012 compared to 2022. An estimated 9 out of 10 cases could have been prevented with adequate prenatal care and treatment. Appropriate screening and treatments are available, but cases continue to rise.
