Answers
1)   You're good. Plus a tetanus shot lasts 10 yrs. If u had one in the last 10 yrs ur good. - Mr Dickman

2)   I wouldn't worry about this scratch, but if you are due for a tetanus shot you should definitely get one. - Ally

3)   better to be safe than sorry. Tiny fragments of metal or rust may have contaminated the wound. - Daniel Holmes

4)   The same thing happened to me, except it was from a rusty nail on a skate ramp.
All i did was run it under warm water and put peroxide on it with a band-aid. Good as new in a few days... - Anna Blue

5)   I believe if you look at the Tetanus statistics you will see that only about 15 people got tetanus last year in the entire United States. It has become extremely rare because we don't have animals on the streets anymore like we used to before cars. An antibiotic will work as well as a poison injection of tetanus vaccine, but the chances of you getting tetanus from that rusty nail is extremely rare. Rusty nails have not been linked to tetanus anyway, that is a myth.

good luck to you - onlymatch4u

Answers
1)   I think that is normal for women. My advice would be wear a funny hat, that will distract them from that region - Big Mam

2)   Try a tanning salon. Might even out your skin tone. Leave your panties on. Guys won't care or be put off by it anyway. Use protection and have a good time. :) - Davey

3)   I think its totally normal for a female to be darker in those areas due to greater blood flow. Trust me no guys going to freak out because ur vagina is darker than the rest of u. Ur obsessing about it forreal. Also has nothing to do really with weight gain. Bodies change as u get older and become fertile. - Brittany Malone

Question 5
What would you consider the major influence on scientific discovery of treatment and management of HIV/AIDS?...  

Answers
1)   The diagnosis of AIDS as a separate problem and its underlying cause in the beginning of the 1980s. Without the ability to diagnose AIDS and HIV, we'd have trouble treating or managing HIV and AIDS. - Zarn

2)   NONE, absolutely none. HIV is a virus and they are not even sure it causes AIDS. Some believe it does, but many people are now immune to HIV infections. Like all infective diseases, the human race will become immune to it over time. More people got small pox from the vaccine than the disease, just like polio where more people got polio from the vaccine than from the disease. Small pox was eliminated from the human race by improved sanitation, better personal hygiene, and quarantine than anything else. HIV will take the same course over time.
