Vampires Los Muertos Final Draft Sexually transmitted diseases are becoming more and more widespread throughout the world more now then ever. Everyone is aware of them but it still doesn’t stop people from having sex. Efforts of advertising contraceptives, abstinence, and sex education have been effective in an attempt to slowing down the spread of STDs but the numbers are still high. STDs and Aids weren’t even considered major epidemics until the mid-80s. People could enjoy sexual intercourse and activities with numerous partners and not have to worry about diseases, using condoms (except for the prevention of pregnancy) or having to go to clinics to be checked for STDs or HIV. As years passed STDs and Aids began to spread at an alarming rate. More and more people worldwide began to be aware of this new concern and it worried and scared many as well. The spread of STDs and Aids combined with kids beginning to engage in sexual activities and intercourse at earlier ages has lead to the culmination of sex education seminars, information packets, and pamphlets given to students as early as elementary school, specifically the 5th grade. It is visible in this movie that Vampires act as a representation of the people in the world with a sexually transmitted disease and the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. Both are parasites or viruses in the human body that can’t be rid of until death. There are medicines now and more are being created to aid or help control the outbreaks but once someone gets it, they are stuck with it. Also, both are spread from person to person either unknowingly or forcefully. This movie shows how the victims didn’t even know the vampires were vampires. A lot of the victims in the movie didn’t even know they were in the same room with a vampire. They looked just like everyone else, walked like everyone else, dressed like everyone else and talked like everyone else. The best way to detect them in the movie was through the use of a thermal imager by Bon Jovi. The thermal imager showed how a live body emits heat but when a vampire was viewed in the imager, no thermals or heat was emitted because the vampires bodies are dead or better yet, undead. Little did the victims know what they were about to get into. Once bitten or scratched, the victims became infected. Paralleling real life, a person could encounter another person with a STD (a vampire) and see that they looked normal and not see any physical symptoms or signs of an STD. From another perspective, it is possible for a person with an STD to encounter a person and become sexually involved with them with out them even knowing they had a disease.
