Question

How can the spread of gonorrhoea be controlled?

Answer

The spread of gonorrhoea can be controlled through the use of antibiotics for treatment and by practicing safe sex using barrier contraception such as condoms.

Explanation

This answer is effective as it outlines both treatment and preventive measures, aligning with the learning objective. The question assesses the student's ability to explain control methods for a communicable disease, which is crucial for public health.

Common mistake

Misunderstanding Transmission

Students often confuse the modes of transmission for gonorrhoea, thinking it can be spread through casual contact rather than specifically through sexual contact.

Emphasize the importance of understanding that gonorrhoea is specifically spread by sexual contact and not through other forms of contact.
