Screening for Chlamydia

What is the current level of knowledge concerning Chlamydia infections in men and women? Would it make sense to introduce general screening for the purpose of detecting Chlamydia infections? Furthermore, would it be right to conduct screening in conjunction with an abortion procedure, since the combination of abortion and Chlamydia can lead to complications? These questions were addressed to the Health Council by the Minister of Health, Welfare and Sport. The Chairman of the Health Council has appointed a Committee to answer these questions.
