Russia Tightens VD Laws and Propaganda Drive
The Soviet government imposes stricter penalties for transmitting venereal disease and expands treatment access. President Podgorny signs a decree: up to three years for knowingly spreading syphilis or gonorrhea, one year for refusing required treatment, and five years for repeat offenders.
