Hey all,
Last week the ABC posted a STIs Quiz on their website. Takes 5min and a few tricky ones in there!
@Nurse_Nettie I’m banking on you getting 10/10 first go 🙂
Haha, yep 100% first go!! B) B) B)
but you’re right, there were some tricky ones! did any of the answers surprise you @walk_on_walls?
9/10
Who Knew ebola can be an STI !!!
7/10 – HPV vaccine only protects across 4 types?? Gonorrhoea may become antibiotic resistant?? :open_mouth:
but at least you can’t catch STI’s off toilet seats!!
:smiley:
7/10, dang!
just got 5/10 only. Need to read more about this topic after i’m free from uni exams.
Bummer, 7/10! That was harder than I thought…
@Nurse_Nettie 8/10, I was surprised with the Ebola answer and took a wild guess at the HPV one O.o
Good effort @walk_on_walls! Whilst sexually transmitted Ebola is extremely rare, the HPV infection is very common. Did you know that there are over 120 different types of HPV? The good news is that only some of these types may cause symptoms in the genital area. The vaccine protects from 4 of the most common types- 2 that may progress to cervical cancer & 2 that may cause genital warts. The vaccine called Gardasil is available free to girls & boys aged 9 to 18 years. Hopefully in the future we wont have these health problems 🙂
9/10! I’m glad, otherwise I would have had to go back to my textbooks and re-educate myself before my next exam!
9/10 Woo! I got stumped by the Ebola question too @pollypower!
@walk_on_walls i got a 9/10. lost a point on a silly bloody mistake!
@walk_on_walls I got a 9. The Ebola question got me!
