The most likely cause of HIV transmission in this scenario is sharing a dirty needle when injecting drugs with a friend. HIV is primarily transmitted through certain body fluids, including blood, semen, l fluids, and breast milk. Sharing needles or other drug injection equipment with an infected person can greatly increase the risk of contracting HIV. The other options mentioned (inhaling droplets from a sneeze, not washing hands, consuming undercooked food) are not common modes of HIV transmission.
