The 2 extremes of risk are found here. The safest are the regulated sex workers (Geylang/Petain/Desker) working out of brothels or ‘houses’. The most dangerous are the freelance girls plying their trade by the side of the road, the so-called ‘ streetwalkers’.
The regulated sex workers are required to undergo sexual health screening every month. They are screened for HIV, Syphilis, Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. They may also be screened for throat or rectal Gonorrhea if they have had oral or anal sex. These sex workers are not screened for other diseases like HPV or Herpes so you are still at a risk of contracting one of these.
Their licenses are revoked if they are infected with HIV or Syphilis. If they have Gonorrhea or Chlamydia, they are given treatment and allowed to continue working.
The last case of HIV detected in these sex workers was many many years ago. Gonorrhea and Chlamydia cases are seen frequently..... "
