Hiv, Hepatitis B And Hepatitis C In Prisons (EDM507)

Hiv, Hepatitis B And Hepatitis C In Prisons

EDM number 507 in 2007-08, proposed by Bob Laxton on 06/12/2007.
Categorised under the topics of Diseases, Health education and preventive medicine, Health services and Prisons.

That this House notes that a survey by the Department of Health of blood borne virus in prisoners in 1997 showed much higher rates of HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C amongst prisoners than is present in the general population; believes that prisons present a good opportunity to reach many of those with blood borne viruses with testing, diagnosis, treatment and education; is deeply concerned that no repeat survey has been conducted in the last 10 years; and joins the National AIDS Trust, British Liver Trust, the Hepatitis B Foundation and the Hepatitis C Trust in calling for the Government to conduct a new anonymous sero-survey of HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C prevalence in prisons to obtain the necessary evidence to respond effectively to this growing health problem.

This motion has been signed by a total of 54 MPs.
