STIs and Abstinence



















STI’S and practicing Abstinence
This a public service announcement brought to you by Miller High School Students

Katie: Planned Parenthood states that, “25 million people around the world have died from HIV/Aids, and more than 40 million people are living with the virus today.” It is estimated that fifty percent of people in the US become infected with an STI at sometime in their life.

Kayla: About 340,000 people contract a disease each year. The sexually transmitted infections that are most common are: Herpes, Genital Herpes, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, and Genital warts, but Chlamydia is the most common of all. In one year up to 100 million people become infected with this disease.

Katie: Today you are told to protect yourself from diseases, to do so, you need to get tested regularly and protect yourself and others, but protection is not 100% effective.

Kayla: That is simply not the answer. Abstinence is the only proven 100% effective method to prevent you from getting infected!!!


Kayla & Katie: Always practice Abstinence-- the only 100% proven preventative medicine!
