Summary/Abstract: An objective of general education core curriculum to include health education to the science subjects and physical education seemed to be reasonable. Health issue, which is an important part of the curriculum of life science and biology mentions about the health hazard of the young people, which include the risk of infectious diseases and diseases transmitted by sexual intercourse. These issues are known by students too little and often overlooked by teachers. It seems that between the health education in schools and the level of competencies of young people, there should be a correlation. Due to the growing interest in long-term investment in the health public, the role of education in the prevention of these diseases is significant.
