Answer to Question 1

D
Widespread public education about the causes, methods of transmission, and methods of preventing STIs (including sex education classes in schools and public service ads on television and radio) is considered the most important factor in combatting the continued increase in incidence of STIs. However, there is no uniformity in the reporting requirements for STIs.

Answer to Question 2

C
When changing a wet-to-moist dressing, apply clean gloves when removing the soiled dressing, remove gloves, cleanse hands, and apply clean gloves before apply new dressing. If the dressing is extremely dry, moisten the dressing with a small amount of saline before removing it, to prevent damage to new tissue growth.
