Associate Professor Jennifer Power: Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) rates

As we age, conversations about health often focus on physical fitness, chronic illnesses, or mental wellbeing. But there’s one topic that often flies under the radar: sexual health.

Recent research has revealed a surprising trend—sexually transmissible infections, or STIs, are rising among people over 50, sometimes at a faster rate than in younger age groups.

Guest: Jennifer Power, Associate Professor and Principal Research Fellow at the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, La Trobe University

Presenter: Latham Smith
