Syphilis ?'s: Contact with mucosal surfaces is the most likely method of conveying syphilis, and therefore is limited to sexual activity for the most part. Testing will certainly determine either present or past infection, but treatment is essential b/c once the primary form fades, the disease becomes remote but still prevalent.
