Résumé
The overarching aim of this project is to leverage the combined expertise and established national networks of CANCOVID-Preg and the Canadian Perinatal HIV Surveillance Program (CPHSP) towards the eradication of congenital syphilis in Canada. We will build upon these networks to conducted enhanced national surveillance of syphilis in pregnancy, implement and evaluate an enhanced model of care in BC, and develop and implement culturally sensitive and trauma informed knowledge mobilization strategies for the public, prenatal care providers, and other clinicians. This collaboration will provide key data to inform improved prevention methods and will catalyze a national response to the increasing threat of syphilis in pregnancy and congenital syphilis.
