EDITORIAL COMMENT: Dr Mary Schramm was asked by the editor to provide this editorial to share her unique long‐term experience of the treatment of syphilis during pregnancy with readers. Our recent editorial policy is to highlight important sentences in papers in bold print. This paper contains so many punchlines, mostly objective but some interestingly subjective, that readers are advised to read it all with care, since there were far too many important passages for bold‐print emphasis of all. This editorial expands the report ‘Syphilis in Fiji’ provided by Dr Mary Schramm and published in the Pacific Health Dialog 1996; 3: 2: 216–219.
