Question

Kiddle The Dog · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  While preventing pregnancies can be one way to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infections, it is not a foolproof method. It is important for Ms. Jenner to follow-up with more comprehensive information on how to prevent sexually transmitted infections such as using condoms, getting tested regularly, and practicing abstinence. The other conversations in the hallway - A, C, and D - do not necessarily indicate a need for immediate follow-up teaching as they are accurate statements about sexual health.
