Solution

The correct option is A Syphilis
Sexually transmitted diseases (STD) and venereal diseases (VD), are infections that are commonly spread by sex, especially vaginal intercourse, anal sex and oral sex. More than 30 different bacteria, viruses, and parasites can cause STDs. Bacterial STDs include chlamydia, gonorrhoea, and syphilis. Viral STDs include genital herpes, HIV/AIDS, and genital warts among others. Parasitic STDs include trichomoniasis among others. Some STDs can also be spread by non-sexual contact with contaminated blood and tissues, breastfeeding, or during childbirth.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
