The correct answer is:
The chances of a 5-years boy contacting a SID are very little.
The chances of a 5 years boy contacting STD are very little. However, it is not impossible entirely, as STD does not only spread through sexual contact. It spreads through body fluids. A person cannot contact STD by sharing milk with infected person, as STD does not spread by a mere touch. However, risk of infection increases when the noninfected person comes in contact with sores on the body of infected person. Haemophilia is not a STD, but X-linked recessive disease. Sickle cell anaemia is autosomal recessive disorder.
