  • sifilis

    A sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. In the early stage of syphilis, a genital or mouth sore called a chancre develops, but eventually disappears on its own. However, if the disease is not treated, the infection can progress over years to affect the heart and central nervous system. Syphilis can also be transmitted from an infected mother to her fetus during pregnancy, with serious health consequences for the infant.

    Disease specialists suspect that dangerous sexual practices are responsible for the resurgence of syphilis.

    Spesialiste op die gebied van siektes vermoed dat gevaarlike seksuele gebruike vir die terugkeer van sifilis verantwoordelik is.
