Answer:

no symptoms and a positive PPD

Explanation:

"TB" stands for <em>"Tuberculosis."</em> It is a disease which is caused by a bacteria called<em> "Mycobacterium tuberculosis." </em>

An individual with a latent TB infection means that<u><em> he has TB yet is not showing symptoms from it.</em></u> The person doesn't feel sick–which means, <em>no night sweats, chills, fever and inflammation.</em> He will also have no cough nor will he feel fatigued. However, if a skin test will be done on him, he will have a positive PPD <em>(Purified Protein Derivative). </em>This is because he has the bacteria in his lungs, but they are <em>"not active."</em>

Natali5045456 [20]
Staying abstinent can keep you free of sexually transmitted diseases and also keep your mental, emotional, and physical state as good as possible! At a young at(teens-20) sexual activity can actually harm some bodies, as they are not yet ready and matured enough. Also, when you are young it is hard enough to be emotionally stable, let alone having had sex and be emotionally stable. Remember there is always the word no, and places to stop. You can have a friend and a safeword for them to come get you etc. <span />
