Ensuring partners are tested and treated is an important way of controlling the spread of this infection. As well as frequently asked questions, this website includes examples of conversations, emails, text messages (SMS) or letters you can use in informing your partner. It even allows you to send an SMS or email to your partner directly from the site, either personally or anonymously or if you prefer, you can ask your their doctor for help.
Before you SMS
- Consider if this really is the best way to contact your partner or partners.
- Remember, most people like to be told in person
Think whether anyone, apart from your partner, could read the SMS. If yes, use another method.
