Social distancing to combat COVID-19 led to a marked decrease in food-borne infections and sexually transmitted diseases in Spain.

We reflect on the possible drivers and consequences of a decrease in these transmittable infectious diseases linked to human contact in relation to social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Madrid (Spain).
