E-cards alert sex partners of STI risk: http://www.vancouversun.com/health/sexual-health/cards+alert+partners+risk/920181/story.html
"It's not what you brought to the party," reads another. "It's what you left with."
The cards are generated by inSPOT, the first online STI partner notification system that uses electronic postcards to "tell your hookups, ex's, boyfriends, girlfriends, and partners they may have been exposed to an STI."
here is the site: http://www.inspot.org/gateway.aspx
TIPS ABOUT THE SITE
Notify everyone you've had sex with in the past six months. Oral sex counts, too.
Try looking through your old emails and your online address book to complete the list.
If you decide to compose a personal message, put yourself in the other person's shoes. Think about how you were told—what you liked and what you didn't—and put the best of it into words.
You don't have to provide detailed medical info—this email card will automatically provide links to what they need to know.
You can send postcards anonymously or from your email address. Historically, when you tell a sex partner(s) yourself, it's more likely s.he will "hear" the message and get tested.
No information will be collected or shared with any public or private agency.
Good idea? Bad?
