It is our standard of practice that anyone whom you might reasonably suspect may have an STI gets serology for HIV, Hep A/B/C, Syphilis, and urine NAAT for G&C. This on top of empiric oral treatment. Our outcomes may be skewed as I'm at an inner city ER with an over representation of folks who live on the margins.

I trained in the hood, I’m all about testing as a baseline, the article doesn’t say anything about results, though
