The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding sexually transmitted infections (STIs) that are curable except for hepatitis B and HIV, we need to identify the diseases that fall under this category. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding STIs**: - STIs are infections that are primarily spread through sexual contact. They can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites. 2. **Identifying Non-curable STIs**: - The question specifies that hepatitis B and HIV are not completely curable. Hepatitis B is a viral infection that can lead to chronic liver disease, and HIV is a virus that attacks the immune system. 3. **Listing Common Curable STIs**: - Other than hepatitis B and HIV, there are several STIs that are generally considered curable if detected early and treated properly. These include: - Chlamydia - Gonorrhea - Syphilis - Trichomoniasis - Bacterial vaginosis (though not always classified strictly as an STI, it can be sexually transmitted) 4. **Filling in the Blank**: - The blank in the question can be filled with "gonorrhea" or "syphilis" as both are common STIs that are curable. 5. **Final Answer**: - The complete statement would read: "Except for hepatitis B, **gonorrhea** and HIV infections, other diseases are completely curable if detected early and treated properly."
