Solution

The correct option is A AIDS
When someone has used a needle, viruses in their blood may contaminate it. This includes needles used to inject illegal drugs. AIDS or Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome disease can be caused by used syringes. Heart attack, stroke, and asthma are non - communicable diseases. Non-communicable diseases are usually caused by genetic or lifestyle factors.
