Herpes simplex virus infection The following slides present the data based on the laboratory positive reports of Herpes simplex virus (genital herpes) received by Health Protection Scotland. Note that it is not possible to distinguish between a primary and a recurrent infection using the laboratory data, thus, these data reflect all cases that have been diagnosed with genital herpes. Data on first occurrence of genital herpes in the genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinic setting is not currently available but for these data prior to 29, please refer to the archived data on the ISD website available at: http://www.isdscotland.org/health-topics/sexual- Health/STIs/

Summary and key points (1) Genital chlamydia diagnoses decreased in 213 to 17,371. There have been an average of over 18,2 diagnoses per year during the past five years In 213, 169 cases of infectious syphilis cases were reported to HPS this is an decrease on that reported for 212 (26) A high proportion of infectious syphilis cases (71%) continue to be recorded among men who have sex with men (MSM) In 213, there were 354 diagnoses of HIV infection newly reported in Scotland: with 167, 13 and 21 new reports of infection among men who have sex with men (MSM), among non-injecting drug using heterosexual men and women, and people who inject drugs (PWID), respectively A high proportion of those eligible for HIV treatment and care in Scotland are receiving it Therapy continues to be successful: 96% of patients undergoing treatment for at least six months during 213 had evidence of viral suppression
Summary and key points (2) Young people, particularly women, aged less than 25, are the group most at risk of being diagnosed with an STI In 213, 77% and 72% of genital chlamydia and gonorrhoea diagnoses, respectively, in women were made in those aged under 25 The sexual health of men who have sex with men (MSM) continues to be of concern as there is evidence from both infection and behavioural survey data of continuing high risk behaviour Rectal gonorrhoea in men, a marker of unprotected anal intercourse, remained at 28% - the highest proportion recorded in the past ten years Increased opportunities for behavioural interventions to promote safer sex are key to ensuring improved sexual health among MSM
