Facebook spreads Syphilis ? OMG (:O)

Hi everyone!!
Today I'll talk about a notice about facebook and its relation with an ITS (Syphilis)... what? yes our facebook. Pay attention!!

Facebook is a real Syphilis's propagator!. This was the title of a news's entry in March 26 (In the Guardian.co.uk). According Media, Facebook is a web site in that you can to comunicate with unknown people and to stablish an affective bond with their.

This stories come from a press release and quotes from NHS Tees, in which the director; called Peter Kelly described a rise in syphilis in his area, and explained that during contact tracing, some people had mentioned having sex with people they met through the internet.

This situation is alarming for us in the sexual education, but...What is
the storie's background? What is the Facebook's opinion?

The prejudice again Facebook is based in a reporting of Sunderland. This reporting talks about consecuences of a sexual relation with unknown people. Facebook opened its doors to world at 2008, however in the last ten years increased the statistics about syphilis.

In really the direct relation of Syphilis with Facebook is not clear and the main cause of this problem is the misinformation about sexual problems.
An example similar to Facebook's case was in Birmingham mail.

This situation is a public health's problem because people do not want to learn about sexuality ( an good education in topic).

In conclusion Facebook is not responsible of to cause Syphilis, "Facebook was used for to justify a problem in the sexual education.
Is important the education and information about this public health.

This for today, the link of my notice is in:
