Sexual Health and Sexually Transmitted Infections
Recent research has shown an alarming incidence of unprotected sexual contact in overseas business and holiday travellers.
- An estimated 90% of overseas sex workers in some cities have HIV and hepatitis B.
- Abstinence is the only way to completely avoid all sexually transmissible diseases such as HIV, hepatitis B, gonorrhoea, syphilis, chlamydia, herpes and warts.
- The next best thing is to practice safe sex procedures such as using a condom with water-based lubricant. It is wise to take Australian condoms as these are made to Australian standards
