1 The Reverse Sequece Syphilis Screeig Webiar will begi shortly The dial-i umber for the call is Questios ca be submitted durig the Webiar via the chat fuctio. Due to the volume of Webiar participats ad the time we have allotted, we may ot be able to provide live aswers to all of the submitted questios. We will compile ad aswer these questios ad will post them olie at as soo as we ca. Natioal Ceter for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, ad TB Prevetio Divisio of STD Prevetio Istructios o how to receive CME credits are available at: A archived versio of the Webiar will be available at withi a few days. If you have questios about reverse sequece syphilis screeig followig the Webiar you may submit them to stdtraiig@cdc.gov Natioal Ceter for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, ad TB Prevetio Divisio of STD Prevetio 1
