He most likely contracted HIV by sharing a dirty needle when injecting drugs with a friend.
Rationale: HIV is transmitted through infected blood, sexual fluids, and from mother to child—not by respiratory droplets, casual hand contact, or eating contaminated food. Sharing needles provides direct blood-to-blood exposure and is a common transmission route.
