HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that weakens the immune system. Meanwhile, AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) means a collection of disease symptoms resulting from a decline in the body's immune system which is acquired, not congenital. The aim of this research is to determine the knowledge and attitudes of teenagers regarding HIV/AIDS towards students at SMA Negeri 2 Kuala, Nagan Raya Regency. This research method uses quantitative research methods with a cross-sectional approach design. The population in this study were 50 students from SMA Negeri 2 Kuala, Nagan Raya Regency. The sampling technique used a saturated random sampling technique to determine the sample because the sample only consisted of 50 people.
