Here is something interesting:
Many people in Loas and Thailand don't have the slightist idea about the hundreds types of STD (sexual transmitted Diseases)/STI (sexual transmitted Infection). I once come across an article which talks about how thailand had the most populated people with STD/STI.
There are many people who went to Thailand and Loas and got effected with STD. Nowaday, there are lots of STD that can turns into HIV or AIDS...if its been effected for a long period of time and doctors kepts on finding new ones.
There are many new hmong (new comer) who happens to have some sort of STD, which they denied when the doctor point it out. I've seem many cases where the effected person denied that they are effected with STD, after a few (four to five) stages of testing.
Vienna18, make sure your father is aware of the types of STD, and if he happened to decided to go visit Loas, make sure he is well educated about the causes and effect of STD before hand. I heard that many of the pretty and young female are effected! (never was a shock!)
As you all learned in Health, there are some which its contages, it would suck, if a family member had it, and got the majorties of the other family member effected.
I am not trying to make your father look bad, nor am I making my father look good. My family is so poor, we cannot afford to have a family vacation, or a family trips. So there is no chance would my family members be able to make any out of country phone call! Or are there any chance of traveling out of the state to another state or country.
SAD ISN'T IT! :sweat:
