What does "ninja" refer to in the context of inmate health?

A skilled martial artist among inmates
A term for inmates who practice stealth
HIV or AIDS as a sexually transmitted disease
An inmate specializing in combat sports

The correct answer is: HIV or AIDS as a sexually transmitted disease

The term "ninja" in the context of inmate health specifically refers to HIV or AIDS as a sexually transmitted disease. This usage likely derives from the notion that these diseases can be stealthy or undetectable, much like a ninja. Inmates may use this slang to describe the health risks associated with sexual activity within the correctional environment, highlighting the importance of awareness and prevention of sexually transmitted infections. Recognizing terminologies like this can help correctional officers understand and address health concerns among inmates more effectively.
