9:11Now PlayingMississippi is grappling with a public health crisis as the state experiences a dramatic rise in Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), with rates hitting around 1,200 per 100,000 residents. This video uncovers the shocking statistics behind this epidemic, including Mississippi's ranking as 3rd in the nation for syphilis cases and the staggering 1,000% increase in congenital syphilis since 2016. We’ll discuss the role of inadequate sex education in this crisis, particularly among young people aged 14 to 24, and hear insights from Deja Abdul-Haqq of My Brother’s Keeper. Discover how outdated educational policies are leaving youth unprepared and uninformed about safe sex practices. This video aims to raise awareness and spark conversations about the urgent need for change in Mississippi's approach to sexual health education.
