STDs & HIV in Brown County: the local picture

How reported STI rates in Brown County, the county that includes Westport, compare with South Dakota and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data.

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.

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 Brown County tests for syphilis.

Local context

About Westport, SD

Westport's name traces to its position on the western edge of Brown County's settled lands, a frontier outpost that grew into a working town. That same directness marks its approach to health today. Confidential STI testing is available in and around Westport through the clinics and providers listed on this page, services designed for people who value straightforward, judgment-free care without the weight of wondering who might find out. Young adults make up a substantial part of Westport's population, and many use testing as routine preventive practice rather than a response to crisis. A screening costs far less than complications later, and the results belong to you alone.

Clinics here understand that people test for different reasons: new relationships, regular check-ins, peace of mind before medical procedures, or simply because it's overdue. The combination of privacy and accessibility matters most. You can schedule appointments at your own pace, receive results on a timeline that works for you, and move forward without the anxiety of disclosure. Testing in Westport stays grounded in what residents actually need: reliable care, confidentiality that's real, and no performance required.

Confidentiality & consent in South Dakota

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

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

Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)

Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT) is potentially allowable in South Dakota: it is not expressly authorized, but not prohibited either. Ask your provider whether they will prescribe treatment for a partner without a separate visit.

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.
