What are all these swabs for? Haven’t we been swabbed enough! This sweeping episode asks some silly questions about various kinds of STI tests and what those different swabs and samples can actually tell us. In the words of Aquaria, any hole is a goal!

As a follow-up to our episode about cum, we’re on the journey of a fluid’s various paths. What are throat and rectal swabs looking for? Are different parts of the body associated with different STI risks? And how has the history of HIV stigma shaped the way we think about anal sex and transmission?

 

Answering these questions with us is Callen-Lorde’s own Dr. Demetre Daskalakis.
