Yours is one of the few reasonable responses so far (an influx of 'people are lobsters' believers at the moment maybe).
This also correlates with what has happened here in England. Because public health/sexual health is funded by councils at the local level and not the NHS it has borne the brunt of cuts to council budgets. As a result we've seen decreased rates of testing and increased rates of infection [0].
While there's a case to be made that Tinder et al. have something to do with it it seems like the funding view is one with actual data behind it rather than 'all the girls are sleeping with Chads and I'm forever alone' finger pointing.
