be aware that which sexually transmitted disease (STD) can be
cured?
a. Herpes
b. Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)
c. Venereal warts
d. Chlamydia.
Answer: ANS: D
The usual treatment for chlamydia bacterial infection is doxycycline

Concurrent treatment of all sexual partners is needed to prevent
recurrence. Because no
cure is known for herpes, treatment focuses on pain relief and
preventing secondary
infections. Because no cure is known for AIDS, prevention and early
detection are the main
focus. Condylomata acuminata (venereal warts) is caused by the
human papillomavirus. No
treatment eradicates the virus.
