STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Converse County, the county that includes Lost Springs, compare with Wyoming and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data.
#9 of 23 Wyoming counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 61% of the state
| Infection | Converse County | Wyoming | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 296.9 41 cases ▼ 5% | 313.2 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 29 4 cases ▼ 31% | 42.3 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | — no data | 2.2 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | — no data | 1.9 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | — no data | 5.1 | 29.5 |
Rates per 100,000 population, 2023. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis). Population figures: U.S. Census Bureau ACS. These figures are the latest available surveillance estimates. Bars are scaled to the highest rate shown.
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.
Between 2020 and 2023 in Converse County, chlamydia has risen from 225.4 to 296.9 per 100,000 (32%), gonorrhea has fallen from 29.1 to 29 per 100,000 (0%), and P&S syphilis has held roughly steady from 21.8 to 21.8 per 100,000.
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
Community health context
Sources: CDC PLACES (ZIP), County Health Rankings, CDC/ATSDR SVI, HRSA HPSA, HRSA MUA/P, Neighborhood Atlas ADI. Lower insurance coverage, fewer routine checkups, and a thin primary-care ratio all raise the value of low-cost public clinics and at-home testing in Converse County.
Local HIV snapshot
Converse County HIV care continuum (2022)
Converse County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2022), against 4.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Converse County residents living with HIV, 66.7% are in care · 66.7% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.
Sources: AIDSVu (Emory/Gilead) · CDC AHEAD · CDC AtlasPlus · CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county care continuum). The CDC recommends everyone aged 13–64 test for HIV at least once: every lab and clinic listed above offers HIV testing, and free rapid HIV testing is available at a local health department.
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 Converse County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Lost Springs Park sits at the center of a town so small it registers as genuinely singular: every household here owns its home, no one rents, and the workforce is fully employed, a profile that sounds stable until you consider what it means for healthcare logistics. Getting tested isn't a matter of walking somewhere or slipping out during a lunch break; US Highway 18/20 is the artery that connects residents to the wider world, and options listed on this page all require a real drive down it. That distance shapes everything for younger adults still establishing their health routines. Low-cost or no-cost screening matters most when a round trip already costs time and gas, and the options listed here vary in fees and sliding-scale availability in ways worth checking before you go.
None of the households here report high earner income, which makes the coverage and cost details on this page worth reading closely rather than skimming. For a resident whose paycheck covers the basics but leaves little margin, the difference between a clinic that offers fee-assisted visits and one that bills at full rate isn't abstract. It's whether the appointment actually pencils into a week built around a long commute on US Highway 20.
Getting there
At 3.55/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Lost Springs generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Two things that actually depend on Wyoming 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).
In Wyoming, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Wyoming 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.
