Hepatitis B is one of the most common and sadly incurable viral STDs. It is transmitted via sexual contact, though, like HIV, it can also be transmitted through blood, tattooing with an infected needle, ear and nose piercing with infected instruments, intravenous drug abuse with infected needles, as well as sharing of razors with an infected individual.
