1.2 STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
The rapid spreading of these deadly
diseases (STDS) does not mean that both the internal and external
bodies’ even corporate organizations are not working to remedy the
issue. But we should not unemphasize the problem facing the efforts.
Some of this problems includes inadequate central surveillance system
from which all of us will be getting the information that we carry and
reply in our program, because what we get now in Nigeria is information
that is fragment not reconcilable. Even when there is seeming
different, there are not other third sources of reference to cross
check. Here the problem of finance contributed to the collapse of the
efforts been made. Take for instance, the latest inhibitors introduced
by Hoffmann – LaRoche of the Switzerland Eortovase and Viracept cannot
be obtained by poor countries like Nigeria.
We know that it
will sound unbelievable even at the moment to some people mainly the
youths of today that kept adamant on the warnings and dangers of being a
prostitute, a homosexual, a Hetero Sexual and equally having
unprotected sexual intercourse. All that the World Health Organization
(WHO) had warned that partners should be truthful to themselves and take
preventive measures.
1.3 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
i. To know how far people have known about existence of the sexually transmitted disease.
ii. To know whether the rate at which male are infected is the same at which the females are infected.
iii.
To recommend preventive measures on how to avoid contacting the
sexually transmitted diseases and give appropriate treatment to avoid
rapid spread of the deadly disease.
iv. To specify the age group that is mostly affected.
v.
Finally, the objective of this study is in picking the types of
sexually transmitted diseases under study one by one and uses
statistical methods predicting what their incidence rate will be in the
year 2005 and 2006.
1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The study has revealed that the awareness of the existence of sexual
transmitted disease. Through this study, their causes, sources and mode
of transmission have been have been highlighted. Having known all these
a greater result can be achieved by embarking on the program against
sexually transmitted disease, such as making use of condom as one of the
preventive measures and total abstinence as another measure. Another
important significance is that, the health standard of the people is
improved, while the death effect and other consequences of sexually
transmitted diseases are minimized by profiling good medical attention
and the use of skilled practitioners.
Finally, by achieving
all these goals, we can have a good social economic planning for the
present and future generation.
