Sexually transmitted diseases and
HIV/AIDS Information
 |
According to the Guttmacher Institute, 2007 "One in two Americans will contract at least one sexually transmitted infection in their lifetime." The U.S. has the highest rate of sexually transmitted infections of any industrialized country. It is to our advantage that we educate ourselves about the causes, symptoms, modes of transmission, and treatments. |
