Whoonga
Pretty shocking, according to the video, people are purposely contracting aids to get a hold of these drugs.
A new street drug called Whoonga is sweeping through townships across the South African city of Durban.
Aside from its increasing popularity, what is of most concern is the lengths Whoonga addicts are willing to go to get their hands on one of its key components - a life-saving HIV medication.
Al Jazeera's Jonah Hull reports from Durban where the drug is leading some addicts to take extreme action.
