A DOS cable announced that, per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) updated technical instructions for panel physicians, all visa applicants 15 years of age or older who undergo a medical exam are required to be tested for gonorrhea. Applicants younger than 15 must be tested if there is a history of gonorrhea or reason to suspect gonorrhea infection. Gonorrhea is an inadmissible condition under INA §212(a)(1)(A)(i), but panel physicians previously only tested applicants who were symptomatic.
