Impact of Sexually Transmissible Infection and Blood Borne Viruses on Young Adults

Sexually transmissible infections and blood borne viruses have a high impact on the young adult community. Lack of awareness and education, poverty, and marginalization are some of the major causes. Healthcare professionals, especially nurses, can play a crucial role in creating awareness and educating the population. Creating awareness can be an effective preventive strategy to reduce the increasing number of cases.

To this, it is essential to implement the role of the nurse that has a major
impact on the community and population. Here, nurses have the role to
create awareness within the population who are interacting with them and
getting health care services. Here, nursing staff needs to share the
information about the STI and blood-borne viruses that can influence a
large population to learn about their negative health impact along with
precaution and prevention which can influence to provide better safety
from the risk of sexually transmissible infection and blood-borne viruses
(Hart et. al., (2021)). The nursing staff is the initial staff who are highly
communicating with the patient within their health care services. They are
in large numbers all over the country. There are a large number of nurses
staff within Australia who can play an important role in creating awareness
regarding sexually transmissible infection and blood-borne viruses
(Ghimire et. al., (2019)). Here, nursing staff share the information and
create awareness about the sexually transmissible infection and blood-
borne viruses among their patient whether they are infected by any other
diseases. Sharing and creating promotions can allow nursing staff to
create a large number of awareness within the local community. By
spreading such type of awareness in every local community, it can lead to
a high impact on them all over the country. Every nursing staff can play a
role can creating awareness about sexually transmissible infection and
blood bone viruses among the large population who are getting interacted
due to any reason (Lim et. al., (2020)).
There is a high impact of sexual infection on the young adult community between 18 and 24. These are the highest community that is highly affected by sexually transmissible infection. This can create due to not having proper information or knowledge regarding the
transmissible infection which can cause the risk of getting this infection and have a negative health impact (Colledge et. al., (2020)). There is a high impact on the health issue and different negative impacts that can influence and deterioration in individual health and
can lead to creating negative health impacts. There are a large number of young people population who are at a greater risk of getting sexually transmittable disease which is due to not having the proper information. They are biologically more prone to diseases. Due to
not having the proper information and following of the recommendation about STI tests. It can lead to creating a high risk of being exposed to the STI due to hesitation (Broady et. al., (2018)). It has a high impact on the young population where they face hesitation to
talk openly about the sexually transmissible infection along with blood-borne diseases.
Here, healthcare professionals and nurses can play an important role in communicating about such type of disease which can have a high impact on their health and life (Harvey et. al., (2021)). Poverty and marginalization have a higher risk of spreading the infection of
sexually transmissible diseases. Here, poverty and marginalization include the disadvantage to the people. Social networks created a high risk of sexual behavior and lead to not getting proper health behavior. Sexually Transferable diseases can highly impact individual
reproductive and sexual health. Stigmatization, also impacts pregnancy complications, cancers, and infertility which can lead to creating a high risk of HIV (Broady et. al., (2018)). Bloodborne viruses are the pathogens like microorganism which includes bacteria and
viruses that are carried in the blood and can create the risk of disease within the individual. These may include different blood-borne pathogen like Malaria, hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This can have a high impact on individual blood
which can lead to creating a severe risk of diseases with few or no symptoms. These are some of the impacts of sexually transmissible infection and blood bone viruses within the young people community. They are highly exposed to such types of infection and diseases
that can lead to creating a high impact on their health (Sira et. al., (2019)). There are a large number of the population who has been affected due to sexually transmissible infection within Australia. There are about 16% of Australian who report a sexually transmissible
disease or infection within their lifetime. This includes more than 23000 people in Australia who are living with the human immunodeficiency virus that is a large number of the population over affected through the sexually transmissible infection or blood-borne viruses
that can hurt their health and created deterioration that leads to the cause of illness and death (Cohen et. al., (2019)).
Impact of sexually transmissible infection and blood borne viruses
Sexually transmissible infection and Blood borne viruses
Sexually transmissible infections are highly effective and can create a
high negative impact on the community and the large population.
bloodborne viruses are also effective and create negative health
impacts like deterioration in health which can lead to creating the
situation of death. Getting over such type of disease which are
increasing the number of cases of sexually transmissible infection and
blood and viruses (Underwood, (2019)). There is a need to make some
changes which allowed to reduce the cases spread in the large
population. In such a situation, it needs to identify the changes which
should be taken into consideration to implement them more
effectively. This can influence a reduction in the cases of sexually
transmissible infection along with bloodborne viruses. It is essential to
identify the main reason that can lead to creating the cause of
sexually transmissible infection or blood-borne viruses. These reasons
may include some major causes that as lack of awareness or
education and lack of using protection against sexually transmissible
infection and blood Bond viruses. To reduce the spreading cases of
sexually transmissible infection along with blood bone viruses, it is
essential to focus on creating awareness and education in the
community and population (Mead et. al., (2018)). Through creating
awareness and education to people about sexual infection and blood-
borne viruses. It can be highly effective to enable young people, and
teenagers to understand the negative health impact on the individual
and they can take precautions and prevention which can be highly
effective and influence them to avoid the risk of sexually transmissible
infection and blood-borne viruses (Thng, (2018)).

It is essential to address the issue of sexually transmissible infection and blood-borne viruses which are highly affecting the young
adult community and the large population within Australia (Tariq et. al., (2018)). In this target key area of change is creating
education and awareness among the young adults and population which can be highly effective and influence the large population of
Australia regarding prevention and precaution strategy. This can be effective to reduce the cases of sexually transmissible infection
and blood-borne viruses among the Australian population. Stage two of the Health Promotion planning cycle includes setting an aim
that implies what is needed to be achieved (Ghimire et. al., (2019)).
By using the Health Promotion planning cycle, it is necessary to ensure clearing of the objective which is to reduce the increasing
cases of sexually transmissible infection and blood-borne viruses among young adults and the large population within Australia (de
Vries, (2019)). To reduce the cases of sexually transmissible infection and blood bone viruses within the young adult. It is necessary
to create awareness that can be effective and enable the community and large population. To reduce the cases, there is a need to
understand that getting exposure to the sexually transmissible infection and blood bone viruses through applying the prevention
strategy that includes different techniques and management (Caswell et. al., (2020)). This is the one where creating awareness can
be one of the main preventive strategies that can influence a large population and young adult community to learn about the causes
and risk of sexually transmissible infection and blood-borne viruses. This can enhance the knowledge and understanding about the
reason that can create the risk of creating awareness. It can also influence them to learn about the negative health impact which can
enable them to take precautions and preventive measures. This can help to reduce the increasing number of cases and enable the
population to stay healthy without any type of negative health-related to sexually transmissible infection and blood-borne viruses
(Wayal et. al., (2018)).
