Number of teens w/ chlamydia..?


For my health class, I'm supposed to find the number of teenagers, people worldwide, and people in the U.S. with chlamydia. I've looked everywhere, but I can't seem to find the right information. If anyone could find me a site (preferably with percentages, but just the numbers work, too), that would be great. Thanks!

Chlamydia is an STD that is making a comeback in the population. ASHA reports that it is most prevalent in young people aged 15-24. According to the CDC, from 2005 to 2006 reported cases of Chlamydia climbed from 976,445 to 1,030,911.

Worldwide, an estimated 89 million new chlamydial infections occurred in 1997.

An estimated 4 million cases [4-8 million cases] including undiagnosed (about 600,000 diagnosed) in the U.S.

Hope that helps!
