In a city with such a thriving, liberal nightlife scene, it is not uncommon knowledge that Prague has become known for beer, liquor, drugs, and sex. With all the booze, late-night clubs, bars, strip clubs, and even brothels that Prague has to offer its inhabitants and the many tourists that enter and exit the city daily, it is not surprising that the rate of casual sex is so frequent.
After all, what brings two strangers together more so than endless amounts of liquor and crowded dance floors? Bearing all of these circumstances in mind, it is highly recommended for individuals to closely monitor themselves for sexually transmitted diseases. Of these, 16 percent were foreigners. Despite these numbers, there are still many ways that citizens and visitors of Prague can protect themselves from becoming part of that statistic.
Overall, HPV is the most common viral infection and Chlamydia is the most common bacterial infection, followed by Syphilis and Gonorrhea. Among all these infamous and familiar infections are also new STDs that are coming to the Czech Republic from developing countries.
The world of STDs is constantly changing and developing, transmitting individually and even culturally. Every day, STDs are transmitted between strangers and couples.
These diseases are also related to age. Chlamydia and HPV are much more related to younger sexually active people than those over the age of 30, which may indicate that individuals should also pay attention to the age of their partners. Casual sex is obviously a big cause in the spread of STDs as well as paid sexual intercourse and drug abuse. Even though it may not seem like someone has an STD, many of these diseases do not have clinical symptoms.
