Reading these numbers: reported case rates only count infections that were actually tested for and diagnosed, so they track local screening effort as much as true spread: a higher rate can reflect more testing, a lower one less. Either way, most STIs cause no symptoms, so treat the figures above as context rather than a verdict, and test on the CDC's schedule regardless of how your area looks.

Pregnant or planning to be?

Congenital syphilis is the fastest-rising STI: what to test, and when

Congenital syphilis, passed from parent to baby in pregnancy, is the fastest-rising STI in the country. U.S. cases climbed from 2,163 in 2020 to 3,882 in 2023. It is almost entirely preventable: the CDC recommends a syphilis test at the first prenatal visit, and every clinic and lab listed for Sussex County tests for syphilis.

Local context

About Henlopen Acres, DE

Rehoboth Beach sits just beyond Henlopen Acres' quiet residential lanes, but the ease of walking the boardwalk doesn't translate to getting a test done. The community's character shapes who needs that planning most. With nearly all households owning rather than renting, and more than half of adults married, the population skews toward longer-term, settled residents, yet the younger adults who live here, those in their late teens and twenties for whom routine testing carries the most weight, are fewer in number and may have the least established relationship with a primary-care provider willing to bring up sexual health.

A labor-force participation rate that reflects a largely retired or semi-retired population also means weekday clinic hours work for some residents but not necessarily for younger working adults who share a household. Financially, the picture is mixed in a specific way: a high proportion of households here are well above typical income thresholds, which can make sliding-scale or income-based clinic fees feel beside the point, but for a renter or younger resident without employer-sponsored coverage, options listed on this page vary meaningfully in cost structure, and the difference between a $0 visit and a $150 out-of-pocket one is worth checking before the drive.

Confidentiality & consent in Delaware

Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Delaware law: who can consent, and whether partners can be treated without their own visit. Everything else about testing privately is the same nationwide (see below).

Can a minor consent on their own?

In Delaware, a minor aged 12 or older can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.

Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)

Delaware permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication (or a prescription) to pass to your partner, no separate exam or appointment needed for them.

Keeping a test private works the same in every state. Whether an STD test shows on insurance (the EOB), how to test anonymously, and self-pay options that leave no insurance trail don’t change by location.
