B) Increased public funding for health promotion activities
C) Decreased reporting of cases of certain STIs
D) Decreased numbers of sexual partners among young adults

Feedback:
The actual incidence and prevalence of some STIs are thought to exceed reported rates. Consequently, apparent decreases are not thought to reflect reality. This trend in reported incidence is not attributed to changes in condom use, health promotion, or decreased numbers of sexual partners.
