Risks of Sexually Transmitted Infections

Question 9 • MI-Contemporary Health

Which of the following is NOT a reason why STIs spread so quickly?

Answer
A
Many people with STIs are asymptomatic.
B
Negative stigmas prevent people from seeking help.
C
Protection used during sex usually fails.
D
Many people have a false sense of invulnerability.

Explanation

Many STIs spread because people can have no symptoms, stigma can keep them from seeking testing or treatment, and a false sense of invulnerability can lead to risky choices. Protection used during sex generally lowers the risk of STI transmission, even though it may not eliminate risk completely, so the claim that it usually fails is not a reason STIs spread quickly.
