Getting the mail usually sucks. It’s mostly bills, junk, and more bills. But it could be worse. A new website lets people send out anonymous letters informing sexual partners that they have an STD. According to an
ABC News article sent to us by
daenarys :
“A public health Web site called Inspot.org has put the trend of e-cards, e-mail, and e-vites to a unique purpose: the e-postcard that notifies you that a past sexual partner came down with a sexually transmitted disease or infection.
The sender can choose the STD, and whether to disclose their name, while Inspot.org will automatically send a list of local health resources to the recipient.”
It’s actually all electronic, but the idea of physically opening the mail paints a better picture. Do you think this is a good way to spread STD awareness, or is it just a cop-out for people that are irresponsible?
