can all STD be cured by antibiotics?



Answers:
NO!


Sexually transmitted diseases have been well-known for hundreds of years — the English language has short words for two of the most common: the "pox" (syphilis) and "the clap" (gonorrhea).

Prior to the invention of modern medicines, sexually transmitted diseases were generally incurable, and treatment was limited to treating the symptoms of the disease. The first voluntary hospital for venereal diseases was founded in 1746 at London Lock Hospital.

The first effective treatment for a sexually transmitted disease was salvarsan, a treatment for syphilis. With the discovery of antibiotics, a large number of sexually transmitted diseases became easily curable, and this, combined with effective public health campaigns against STDs, led to a public perception during the 1960s and 1970s that they had ceased to be a serious medical threat.

During this period, the importance of contact tracing in treating STIs was recognized. By tracing the sexual partners of infected individuals, testing them for infection, treating the infected and tracing their contacts in turn, STI clinics could be very effective at suppressing infections in the general population.

In the 1980s, first genital herpes and then AIDS emerged into the public consciousness as sexually transmitted diseases that could not be cured by modern medicine. AIDS in particular has a long asymptomatic period – during which time HIV (the human immunodeficiency virus, which causes AIDS) can replicate and the disease can be transmitted to others – followed by a symptomatic period, which leads rapidly to death unless treated. Recognition that AIDS threatened a global pandemic led to public information campaigns and the development of treatments that allow AIDS to be managed by suppressing the replication of HIV for as long as possible. Contact tracing continues to be an important measure, even when diseases are incurable, as it helps to contain infection

Herpes cannot. HIV cannot.
nope. there is no cure for HIV and AIDS
Nope. Herpes and HIV so far are not curable.
Herpes and AIDS are not cureable. The rest I can think of, can be treated.
no they can't. antibiotics kill bacteria

1) herpes is a virus
2) genital warts is a virus
3) hiv is a virus
4) hepatitis B & C are viruses (A isn't really a blood-born std).

there are no antiviral drugs that can kill viruses, and you have these four for the rest of your life. you can always pass them on, so you're damaged goods as soon as you get one of these
If it is caused by a bacteria, then yes. STD's that are bacterial are gonorrhea, chlamydia, etc. IF it is caused by a virus, such as genital warts, genital herpes, HIV, then no. There is no cure for a virus. If you have herpes, you do not suffer all the time with the diesease, since it goes into remission then comes back for recurrent outbreaks, so its always possible to spread it. HIV, you dont even have to have signs or symptoms that you have it, but you can be infeceted.
