Prisoners: Sexually Transmitted Diseases
- Question
- asked Her Majesty's Government:Whether sexually transmitted diseases, in particular HIV, are more prevalent today in prisons than (a) five years ago, and (b) 10 years ago.
- Answer
-
This information is not collected centrally. Prisons and prisoners are not currently identified as a specific setting or categoryof patient in either of the two national surveillance databases that collect data on the prevalence of sexually transmitted infections or HIV infection. Therefore, we cannot provide data on the current or previous prevalence of STIs or HIV infection among prisoners.
