What is syphilis and how does it affect health?
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. It is primarily transmitted through sexual contact, but can also be passed from mother to child during pregnancy .
Initial symptoms include painless sores on the genitals, mouth or rectum, which may go unnoticed if not diagnosed early.
If left untreated, syphilis can progress to more serious stages, affecting vital organs such as the heart, brain and nervous system. Fortunately, the disease is completely curable with proper treatment with antibiotics.
So far, Boca Juniors has not issued an official statement on this issue. However, the situation invites us to reflect on the shared responsibility between institutions, athletes and fans to promote a culture of health care on and off the field.
