5. How do druge users catch HN/AIDS)​

Social Studies
1 answer:
White raven [17]4 years ago
5 0

Substance use disorders, which are problematic patterns of using alcohol or another substance, such as  crack cocaine, methamphetamine (“meth”), amyl nitrite (“poppers”), prescription opioids, and heroin, are closely associated with HIV, AIDS, and other sexually transmitted diseases.

Injection drug use (IDU) can be a direct route of HIV transmission if people share needles, syringes, or other injection materials that are contaminated with HIV. However, drinking alcohol and ingesting, smoking, or inhaling drugs are also associated with increased risk for HIV. These substances alter judgment, which can lead to risky sexual behaviors (e.g., having sex without a condom, having multiple partners) that can make people more likely to get and transmit HIV.

Hopes this helps :)

From the perspective of merton’s strain theory of deviance, a mugger and a stock broker are similar in that both:______.
andreyandreev [35.5K]

From the perspective of Merton's strain theory of deviance, a mugger and a stock broker are similar in that both:<u> innovators</u>

<u></u>

<u></u>

Social inequality can create situations in which society experiences tensions (or tensions) between the goals it should aim for (such as financial success) and the legitimate means at its disposal to achieve those goals.

In Merton's theory of strain, social structure can force an individual to commit a crime. Classical strain theory states that divergence is likely to occur when there is an inconsistency between the "cultural goals" of society (such as financial wealth) and the opportunities people have to achieve them.  

In response to strong criticism of classical strain theory, sociologists Robert Agnew, Steven Messner, and Richard Rosenfeld developed general strain theory. This predicts that various stresses (such as violence and discrimination) generate negative emotions that lead to deviations if there is no other viable way to deal with them.

Sindrei [870]

This is due to the flow of the river.  There are times when the flow is higher than its usual base. It helps irrigate the crops and makes the soil fertile.  Unfortunately this can lead to loss of property and sometimes lives. The worse was the flood of 2010 were many people were killed in Pakistan.
