Answer to Question 1

D

Because there is no cure for herpes, treatment focuses on pain relief and preventing secondary infections. Because there is no known cure 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. The usual treatment for chlamydial bacterial infection is doxycycline hyclate or tetracycline. Concurrent treatment of all sexual partners is needed to prevent recurrence.

Answer to Question 2

B
