  2. What is an STI?It is an illness that has a significant probability of transmission between humans by means of humansexualbehaviour, including vaginalintercourse, oralsex, and analsex. While in the past, these illnesses have mostly been referred to as STDs or VD, in recent years the term sexually transmitted infections (STIs) has been preferred, as it has a broader range of meaning; a person may be infected, and may potentially infect others, without having a disease.
