3. Syphilis is a bacterial infection primarily
transmitted through sexual contact. It
presents in several stages, each with
distinct symptoms. Early detection and
treatment are vital to prevent
complications and further transmission.
This slide discusses its epidemiology and
impact on public health.

6. There are several types of models used in epidemiology, including compartmental
models (like SIR) and agent-based models. Each type has its strengths and
weaknesses in capturing the complexities of syphilis transmission and control
strategies.
