ON VACATION
Central station. Next stop: Sovetskiï boul'var.
- Careful, young man! - Careful.
- Yeah.
That's me, in a hurry.
My name is Vitia.
My fiancee's name is Lena.
I am going on a business trip but the timing is bad.
As soon as I return, we will get married.
Here's the orchestra.
It's not playing for us yet but it's still music.
He's blind.
Next stop: Ser'eznaia Station.
Isn't this your stop?
A DANGEROUS PATH
Some people are just lucky.
So, you bend down to pick up a spoon...
I bend down and suddenly I hear...
Place your arms around your knees and hold them close to your chest.
Lie down slowly on your back and roll over to your right side.
That's it?
Did she give you the "French disease"?
What do you mean?
A friend of mine also met a woman on a train like that once.
He told me...
Where are your protective devices?
Don't you know the dangers of foregoing protection?
Get dressed, comrades.
The UV session is over.
FACTORY SOLARIUM
And he had to seek treatment.
No, she was very proper.
And I took some Biomycin, just in case.
It's all good, then.
- When's the wedding? - In 2 weeks.
FURNITURE
Did she give you the "French disease"?
You have a suspicious ulcer. Is it painful?
It feels a bit dense.
Let's test forTreponema pallidum.
Do you know where your travel partner lives?
No.
She was on her way to visit someone. She got off at Otradnaya.
Her last name?
- No clue. - First name?
Elvira.
This sounds like an interrogation.
We have to find her.
Why?
To examine her.
If she's healthy, you can be reassured.
If she's ill,
she poses a grave danger to others.
She'll quickly be brought in and treated.
What does she look like? Please tell me more.
Black hair, a thin figure,
blue eyes, I think, a straight nose,
and a large mouth.
That's not much.
The laboratory will test you now.
If no spirochetes are found,
come back for a second test
tomorrow.
Luckily, it's quick.
I'm getting married in 10 days.
Married?
The marriage must be postponed.
Why?
Until you have recovered,
you shouldn't so much as touch our fiancée.
- Yes? - You requested Otradnaya?
- I did. - Transferring you to Otradnaya.
- Hello. - Is this the clinic?
We need your help finding a woman,
the presumed source of an infection.
She came to your city by train.
Her description: tall...
Dear doctor,
I'm relieved to see I'm healthy.
That's far from certain.
But my tests are negative.
It doesn't prove anything.
You had taken antibiotics before the consultation.
In such cases, test results often come back negative.
Let's look for spirochetes again.
If we don't detect anything,
we'll conduct a Wassermann test.
But the wedding will have to wait.
Yes, yes.
Control tower, here.
How may I help you?
Speak up.
SYPHILIS DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT
Syphilis is caused by a germ
called pale spirochete.
Syphilis can be transmitted in various ways:
through sexual intercourse, kissing
or objects used by the patient.
About 10 weeks after contamination,
the secondary stage of syphilis begins
It manifests as various rashes.
NEW FILM YEAR AS LONG AS LIFE
Hair loss is not uncommon.
If the patient is not treated
or treated incorrectly,
4 or 5 years later,
the tertiary stage of syphilis sets in.
Syphilis
affects internal organs.
It destroys bones and tissues.
11th FLOOR RECEPTION
There is no rash.
But you require at least 6 months of treatment.
Doctor.
I didn't tell you everything before.
I know the woman's name and address.
Too late.
I know them now.
- You found her? - Yes.
Without your help, unfortunately.
She's being examined.
You behaved like most men
after a one-night stand.
You sought medical help,
but you thought you could lie.
I didn't hurt anyone.
It was an accident.
You were going to get married.
Families are founded on responsibility.
I don't feel like it.
I don't want it, I'm fed up.
Working is a responsibility.
Driving a scooter is a responsibility.
Even being with a woman is a responsibility.
I don't want it.
This boy became blind a year ago,
due to irresponsibility.
Before his father got married, he fell ill and sought treatment.
As soon as tests
came back negative,
he stopped, against the doctor's advice.
He left town and got married. His wife had no idea.
She became ill too,
but she did not know,
since the rash is rarely troublesome and can go unnoticed.
She did not go to antenatal visits.
The child was born with congenital syphilis.
And now, he will never regain his sight.
Syphilis is insidious.
The boy's mother has a heart condition now.
The father suffers from a diseased spinal cord,
due to incomplete treatment.
A man must always act responsibly.
AEROFLOT FLIGHTS
One misstep, on the spur of the moment,
and life, love and happiness are jeopardized.
