Australia's new health crisis: Do you have an STI?

Afternoon Headlines: Former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull slams AUKUS deal as 'dumb' and 'unfair', Treasurer Jim Chalmers addresses the financial fallout from ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred and body believed to be of 6-year-old girl found in bushlands

Deep Dive: STI cases are skyrocketing across all age demographics in Australia, with some rates doubling or tripling, and unprotected is sex a major contributing factor.

Despite conversations around consent and safe sex starting to enter mainstream media, cases of genital herpes, gonorrhoea, syphilis, and HIV are leading to increased rates of lifelong health problems, and in some cases, deadly cancers.

In this episode of The Briefing Natarsha Belling is joined by Dr. Ginni Mansberg, a leading GP, to find out why we aren’t taking sexually transmitted infections seriously.
