Use those condoms
Using condoms should be a no brainer, as this article shows:
Slowing the spread of one of the nation's most prevalent STDs among college tudents — the human papilloma virus, or HPV — requires knowing how the virus is prevented. That has been somewhat of a mystery — until now. A new study in the New England Journal of Medicine reveals that consistent condom use can prevent the spread of HPV in up to 70 percent of cases, giving Innis and other health educators better proof that condoms can prevent HPV, helping to dispel any myths that they are not effective. "It's the first study to nail home the point that condoms prevent against HPV transmission," said Peter A. Leone, an epidemiology professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
