Quick Facts
Look around you... there are millions of people with their own secrets. They are afraid to tell you for fear of rejection and much more.

STDs happen to anyone and you might be at risk if you are sexually active including kissing.
More than 12 million Americans are infected with STD's each year. By some estimates, nearly 25 percent of Americans have an STD.
1 in 4 people have genital herpes.
90% of the population over the age of 12 have type 1 herpes, the common cold sore on your lip. That means that 90% of the population has the ability to give genital herpes through oral sex.
HPV, Human Papilloma Virus (genital warts) is the most common STD in the U.S. and more than 5 million people are infected with HPV each year!
Most people are walking around with an STD and do not even know it. Many do not have symptoms or know enough about STD's to know what symptoms they might have.
Since the HIV epidemic began, worldwide an estimated 21.8 million people have died of AIDS (17.5 million adults and 4.3 million children under 15).

SWORN is dedicated to break the silence with STDs.
We want everyone to have a voice and to be able to hold their heads up high. Herpes, HPV, Hep C, HIV are incurable but they are treatable. They are not who you are just what you have. We care since we have walked the walk and have found that by being vocal you become strong with your virus.

WE ARE SWORN! HOW ABOUT YOU?
