2. Alaska
Chlamydia: 768,3
Gonorrhea: 151,1
Primary and secondary syphilis: 1,1
Alaska is not far behind our winner on this list. It ranks as number one in all 50 states when it comes to rates of chlamydial infections and 8th in gonorrheal infections. Reported rates of chlamydia are 2.2% higher in women than men; 1083,5 cases per 100,000 in women compared to “only” 483,1 per 100,000 in men. It is interesting that despite high rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea, Alaska has a very low rate of primary and secondary syphilis and it is ranked as 49th state out of 50. There were 24 people diagnosed with HIV in Alaska (in 2015) ranking Alaska 44th among 50 states when it comes to rates of HIV diagnosis.
