STD’s Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Do you remember what the biggest difference is between Bacterial infections and Viral infections? Bacterial infections can be treated with antibiotics. If treated early enough, there will be no long term effects. Viral infections can not be treated with antibiotics. Once they are in your system, they are not going away. Any medication taken is for the symptoms only. The virus will still be there. What does it mean to be asymptomatic? It means there may not be any symptoms, but it can still be spread from person to person.
Anytime you see this picture, there is a very graphic slide with CDC photos coming up on the next slide!
REMEMBER… You can still have the STD and spread it even if NO SYMPTOMS APPEAR!
