Knowing all of this OP WHAT WAS YOUR MOTIVE FOR THE POST

The rumor reference the STDs was started by a disgruntled female OB-GYN who practiced in a woman’s clinic on 101. I was living in The Villages at the time. This doctor has virtually disappeared after complaints to the Fl Board of Medicine and the resulting disciplinary action by the board. Her license has been null and void since 2014. Her practice was “closed or abandoned” according to the public records at the state level.
I heard that she later recanted her statement but the damage was done.

Exactly as you said, "rumored."
Drop it. It's ridiculous.

I think I found a cure for low blood pressure. Read the comments after the article and watch your blood pressure boil. Some total fabrications, lies, and hate directed at TV.

How many people actually bothered to read the Article, before posting?

The author researched the "rumor" for months and she makes it clear those rumors are and were, are unfounded. In fact, she says the rate of STD's in The Villages area, is significantly lower than the rest of Florida.

If there's one truism about The Villages, it's people can't wait to post on social media.

Thank you for the follow up.

I do. A male friend since junior high was widowed about a year ago. He 80 and has been going at it with several women between the ages of 54 and 78 for a few months now. He recently rented an apartment in NYC in which he will reside a little less than half a year so he can get more. Yes he is rich.

I am 80 and remain active.

The Florida Department of Health website (FLHealthCHARTS.gov: Site Search) does not list results by cities, but rather by county. The bulk of The Villages is Sumter County, so this is the data I looked up. I am also listing your home county of Brevard for comparison. To support my comment that STDs in The Villages is an “urban legend” here are some findings. The results are for the year 2020, the most current data available.
Total Syphilis per 100,000 population:
Brevard – 36.4 Sumter – 15 5th lowest in the state
Gonorrhea per 100,000 population:
Brevard – 139.4 Sumter – 48 2nd lowest in the state
Chlamydia per 100,000 population:
Brevard – 336.3 Sumter – 133.5 lowest in the state
I think this should put to rest the “STD capitol of the World” thinking.


I love facts. Thanks for sharing that.

Then you agree with the article!
