Marijuana. Marijuana is the most commonly used drug among teens today. Always has been and probably always will be. Marijuana is the "gateway drug." Marijuana leads to other drug usage, which is why it can be such a risk. Teens that use Marijuana are 99% more likely to use and try other drugs than a teen than has not tried Marijuana.

Who is at greatest risk for HIV transmission?

In terms of statistical risk generally homosexual populations in developed countries as well as drug users are at greater risk. In areas of high prevalence there is a risk to most people who have active sex lives. In practical risks everyone who has any form of sexual contact: Anal, Vaginal, and oral (unless they can find a way to refute oral transmission) has risk regardless of their sexuality. Similarly drug users also have risk if they are sharing needles. Its important if you're a heterosexual or a homosexual to understand that a risk exists and that just because you don't fall into a high risk category doesn't mean that it cant happen to you.
