Syphilis patients surging in Japan in 2022
Cases of syphilis are surging across Japan, with the number of patients so far this year up 1.6 times compared to the same period in 2021 -- a year that saw record-high case figures -- prompting medical specialists to warn that it has become a "common" sexually transmitted disease.
Syphilis patients have been on the rise across the country since 2011, with explosive growth seen from 2013. According to the National Institute of Infectious Diseases (NIID), preliminary case numbers in 2021 reached 7,875, surpassing the previous high of 7,007 recorded in 2018.
As of April 10, 2022, 2,592 patients had been reported nationwide according to preliminary figures -- a significant rise from the 1,595 cases recorded during the same period last year.
