Part Four: Monologue
“Sexually transmitted disease, or STD, is a serious social problem facing the world today. Fortunately, education can do a lot to control this problem.  Education is particularly important for diseases such as AIDS and herpes, for which no cure exists. We must educate our society’s sexually active citizens to prevent the spread of these diseases. At the very least, we should make it clear that the use of a condom during sex will keep people from getting these diseases. We should also try to calm people’s fears. For example, we must make it clear they cannot get AIDS by doing certain things, such as kissing or sharing a meal. We cannot guarantee that people will listen, but the effort must be made to let them know what the dangers are, and how to prevent them.”
         ——Dr. Anne Motts  U.S. Center for Disease Control
性传染疾病或者称之为STD,是当今世界面临的严重的社会问题。幸运的是,教育能在很大程度上对其进行控制。对于象艾滋病、疱疹这样的至今没有药物医治的疾病来说,教育尤为重要。我们必须教育社会中进行性接触的市民对这些疾病进行预防。至少,我们能够告知其明白在性行为过程中戴安全套可以防止感染疾病。我们也应该尽力消除市民的恐惧心理。比如说,我们必须使他们明白接吻或者共餐等特定活动并不会感染艾滋病。我们无法保证人人会听,但是付出一定努力告知他们什么是危险以及如何避免这种危险却是必要的。                                             
         —— 安妮·莫特医生   美国疾病控制中心
