[Proceed if participant is ≥ 18 years of age. Otherwise skip section 8 and conclude interview]


Finally, I would like to ask about your recent sexual activity because Shigella can be spread through sexual contact. Shigella germs are very contagious; it takes just a small number of Shigella germs to make someone sick. People can get shigellosis when they put something in their mouths or swallow something that has come into contact with the stool of someone else who is sick with shigellosis. This can happen during sex.


As I stated previously, your responses are voluntary, and you may refuse to answer any question at any time. We ask all adults who were diagnosed with a Shigella infection these questions. Your answers to these questions will be kept private and may help us to identify how you became sick with a Shigella infection. This will also help us to prevent others from getting sick.
