Drug users are at a greater risk for a disease that is caused by a virus, such as hepatitis. Some blood containing the virus remains in the needle and is injected in another person when needles are shared.

Further Explanation:

Injurious effects of drugs are:

  • To affect the memory of the brain
  • To affect growth.
  • To birth defect.
  • To cause behaviour and learning problems.
  • Hallucination

Drug users are at very high risk for the disease that is can be developed due to virus, for example hepatitis. This can develop due to the presence of a virus in the blood which is remaining in the needle and the needle is injected in any other person. When the needles are shared in between two or three people chances of having virus disease can increase. The viruses that develop hepatitis C and B can cause serious, sometimes life threatening liver disease. Drug users should not avoid sharing of needles to inject drugs.

Why do you think the humanistic approach is important
Fofino [41]

Answer:

As it developed, humanistic psychology focused on each individual's potential and stressed the importance of growth and self-actualization. The fundamental belief of humanistic psychology is that people are innately good and that mental and social problems result from deviations from this natural tendency.
