B
Chlamydia is the most common of all bacterial STIs, and is treated with an antibiotic.
Chlamydia is caused by bacteria that can be treated, not by a virus.
Sexually transmitted infections, such as chlamydia, are transmitted from infected individuals to partners during intimate sexual contact. STIs are contracted not via blood-borne exchange, but rather through body fluids.
Chlamydia is not prevented with the use of a spermicide.
