Health groups warn on US neglect of venereal disease control
Three health associations urge federal action amid a 1955 budget plan that trims VD control to 2.5 million dollars, a 76 percent drop since 1953. They warn reservoirs of infection remain undetected, hotspots persist, and VD cases rise in one third of states despite overall declines. They call for full federal responsibility, a congressional study, and a steady 10 million dollar annual appropriation until the study concludes.
