About the Webinars
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released updated Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD) Treatment Guidelines in December 2010. As a follow-up to our webinar on the 2010 STD Treatment Guidelines, Cardea will be hosting two events focused on chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes and syphilis.
The first event will feature presentations on the treatment of these STDs and significant opportunity for dialogue with an expert panel from the Seattle STD/HIV Prevention Training Center. After the first event, we will solicit additional questions from you, and, during the second event, the expert panel will answer your questions, do case-based presentations, and offer clinical consultation on the prevention, diagnosis, management and treatment of chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes and syphilis.
