Well, if someone is using needles, it’s possible, if not likely that they might use a dirty needle. Treating the addiction would in turn make them less likely to come into contact with an infected needle. You see how that works?
Yes, drug addiction treatment would be able to reduce the spread of AIDS/HIV. Drug users are more likely to get affected by such diseases, so treating drug addicts will definitely help. Studies have shown that drug injectors who are not letting themselves be subjected to treatment are six times more likely to get infected with HIV or AIDS, as opposed to those who let themselves be subjected to treatment.
Never thought of it that way. I suppose it could, when referring to needle users. A lot of prostitutes sell themselves for drug money, so that would also be a way.

Weed is addicting, but I love it, its about as addicting as coffee, maybe a
little more, ok a lot more.
I have smoked large amounts for 13years non stop and i have stopped in 1
day. I dont find weed or hash to be addictive, but sigarettes are! One
thing is for certain some people cant handle marijuana, just as some cant
handle alcohol. Some people puff puff pass and others puff puff and pass
out. 😉 But i dont see any remaining side effects. But i am talking about
natural seeds grow in a natural way not the chemical or scientifically
manipulated weed breed.
