Kenneth has been exhausted lately and keeps getting sick. he finally goes to the hospital because he can't get over a common cold. while in the hospital, the doctors find a fungal infection in his lungs and then check his white blood cells. his white blood cell counts are extremely low.

which std/sti might kenneth have?

a. gonorrhea
b. syphilis
c. hpv
d. hiv/aids

The correct answer is D.

Kenneth could very well have HIV/AIDS. HIV/AIDS attacks your immune system and destroys white blood cells, the cells that are used to fight infections. He can't seem to get over a common cold and is always getting sick, these are signs that something is wrong with his immune system, he has also contracted a fungal infection in his chest as a result of his body not being able to fight off the cold virus and his white blood cell count is low. This would all point to HIV/AIDS.
