Number of laboratory-confirmed cases of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (n = 24,516) and Chlamydia trachomatis (n = 219,748), Denmark, 2018–2023

Caption

Based on national surveillance data, an increase in the number of cases of both gonorrhoea and chlamydia has been observed during the last 5 years. Whereas the number of chlamydia cases usually is almost 10-fold higher than gonorrhoea, the relative increase in 2022 and 2023 compared with earlier years (2018–21) was notably lower than that of gonorrhoea.
