Yes, I'm sure. Sharing needles is a common practice among some illicit drug users, particularly those who inject drugs. This behavior can lead to the transmission of blood-borne infections, including HIV and hepatitis B and C. These diseases can be easily transmitted through contaminated needles and syringes, making the risk of catching certain infectious diseases higher among those who engage in this behavior.
