But smartphones are also capable of transforming into competitive diagnostic tools as a team of biomedical engineers out of Columbia University is showing with their new attachment that can detect both HIV and syphilis in a single 15-minute test.

The new device uses microfluidics technology and could significantly reduce the cost of sophisticated tests for diseases such as HIV, Lyme disease and syphilis, according to the study authors.
After that, they're also aiming to detect antibodies for syphilis and herpes. One of the big advantages of their method is its cost:
The device is designed to detect syphilis, gonorrhoea, chlamydia and trichomoniasis, the most common in the category,

June 30 (Reuters)- The World health organization on Tuesday declared Cuba the first country in the world to eliminate the transmission of HIV and syphilis from mother to child.
In 2013, only two children in Cuba were born with HIV and five with syphilis, the statement said."
The PAHO and WHO credited Cuba with offering women early access to prenatal care, HIV and syphilis testing,
The two organizations began an effort to end congenital transmission of HIV and syphilis in Cuba and other countries in The americas in 2010.
