Advertisement Response from Dr. Frascino Bonjour Galle, Y a-t-il un risque pour n'importe quelle itss ??? Est-ce que j'ai laissé passer quelque chose en classe de français ? Quelle est une itss ??? Ah, pigé. IST infection sexuellement transmissible. Non, pas de risque. C'est pour cette raison qu'on les appelle IST (infections SEXUELLEMENT transmissible) et non IAT (infections AIGUILLEMENT transmissible). Si tu vas continuer à te piquer en faisant du shopping, il se peut que tu veuilles mettre ton état d'antitétanique aux normes. Bonne chance et bonne santé et joyeux (et tranquille) shopping !
