N2  - Moral and prejudicial beliefs have affected the control of venereal disease throughout history.

A host-oriented focus in control programs deflects critical attention away from deficiencies in responses of physicians and governments to disease intervention, which may well account for the continuing high disease rates.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
