The wound is oozing both blood and pus. His leg is badly swollen, and worst of all, the smell of festering flesh is enough to make me want to vomit.

"But this is no ordinary feast. Each one of you needs something desperately." I do need something desperately, something to heal Peeta's leg.

"Each of you will find that something in a backpack, marked with your district number, at the Cornucopia at dawn. Think hard about refusing to show up. For some of you, this will be your last chance," says Claudius.

Level#1: Millions of people in the United States suffer from sexually transmitted diseases, or STDs. Gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and genital herpes are four examples of common STDs.

2. What does a condom do to protect both partners?

3. What is the best way to avoid getting an STD?

If you are sexually active, make sure that the male partner wears a latex condom. The condom protects both partners from the spread of bacteria and viruses. Ask your partner if he or she may be a carrier of an STD. Do not have sex if he or she says yes, or if you have any other reasons to believe he or she has an STD.

Do not put any needles into your skin. Sharing needles can spread the HIV infection and AIDS. If you have symptoms of any STD, see a doctor. The STD gonorrhea has the following effects on the body: A burning sensation while urinating, infection in the female reproductive system, can cause blindness in babies who get the disease from their mother. Chlamydia causes pain and vaginal itching in women, burning sensation in men, and can cause men and women to become sterile. Syphilis causes open sores on the penis or vagina, can cause blindness, paralysis, and mental illness, can cause death if left untreated.

1. Explain the symptoms of the STD known as Syphilis.

2. Explain why sharing needles can be extremely dangerous.

3. Explain the purpose of a condom for both partners in a sexual relationship, and what question should you ask your partner before having sex with them.

Directions: ANSWER USING COMPLETE SENTENCES! Use the information you have been given to answer questions about: AIDS AND HIV

Level#1: AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. AIDS is a type of sexually transmitted infection, or STI. A person develops this disease after first getting the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, or HIV. This virus infects and destroys cells in the immune system. The immune system protects the body from disease. When the whole immune system fails, the body has trouble fighting off other diseases.

1. What does AIDS stand for?





2. What is AIDS?





3. How does a person develop AIDS?






Level#2: AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. AIDS is a type of sexually transmitted infection, or STI. A person develops this disease after first getting the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, or HIV. This virus infects and destroys cells in the immune system. The immune system protects the body from disease. When the whole immune system fails, the body has trouble fighting off other diseases. The symptoms of AIDS include weight loss, fevers, rashes, and swollen lymph nodes. Eventually, people with AIDS usually die of a disease that the body can no longer fight, such as pneumonia or cancer. There is no known cure for AIDS. You can get HIV through sexual contact. You can also get the disease by sharing needles to inject drugs into the body. AIDS is also spread from an infected mother to her fetus.

1. What does AIDS stand for and what is it?





2. How does a person develop AIDS and what does it do to the immune system?





3. What does the immune system do and what happens when it fails?

You can also get the disease by sharing needles to inject drugs into the body. AIDS is also spread from an infected mother to her fetus. AIDS has become an epidemic. This disease was first recognized by doctors in the early 1980's. By the end of 1991, it was estimated that between 1 and 1.5 million Americans had become infected with HIV. Some people think that HIV is only passed between same-sex partners. HIV can be passed between men and women. HIV is not passed from one person to another through casual contact such as hugging or shaking hands.

1. Explain what AIDS stands for, what it is, and how it develops.







2. Explain what the immune system does and what HIV does to it.







3. Explain what happens when the immune system fails.
