Eviction from renter-occupied households and rates of sexually transmitted infections: A county-level ecological analysis

Sexually Transmitted Diseases Dec 16, 2018

Niccolai LM, et al. - Researchers sought to assess the specific impact of eviction from renter-occupied households, an event that has immediate implications for residential stability for low-income individuals, on sexually transmitted infections (STI) rates via examining county-level associations between eviction rates in 2014 and rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea in the following year using publicly available data sources (Eviction Lab National Database and AtlasPlus, respectively). Counties with low, medium, and high rates of eviction had median rates of chlamydia of 229, 270, and 358 cases per 100,000 population, respectively, and median rates of gonorrhea of 25, 37, and 75 cases per 100,000 population, respectively. Findings thus suggest that the association of county-level eviction rates with chlamydia and gonorrhea rates is significant and robust and is independent of other known predictors of STI.
