21. Abortion Statistics England and Wales: 2014
Total number of abortions was 184,571
0.4% less than in 2013.
Abortion rate was highest for women age 22.
98% of abortions were funded by NHS
67% took place in the independent sector under NHS Contract, up from 64% in 2013.
92% carried out under 13 weeks gestation.

22. Abortion Statistics England and Wales: 2014
Medical abortions accounted for 51% of the total.
First year, there has been more medical than surgical procedures.
3,099 abortions (2%) carried out under ground E (risk that child could be born handicapped).
37% of abortions in 2014 were to women who had already had one or more abortions.

23. STI Statistics

24. STI’s and Chlamydia Screening in England : 2014
In 2014, 440,000 diagnoses of STI’s made in England.
Greatest impact in young heterosexuals under age 25 and MSM.
Most common STI was chlamydia (206,774 diagnoses in 2014).
Largest proportional increase was reported for syphilis (33%) and gonorrhoea (19%)
MSM- 46% increase in syphilis, 32% gonorrhoea.
High levels of condomless sex probably account for most of the rise, although better detection of gonorrhoea may have contributed.

25. HIV Statistics

26. HIV New Diagnoses, Treatment and Care in the UK: 2015 Report (October)
A total of 6,151 people were newly diagnosed with HIV during 2014.
85,489 people seen for HIV care by the end of 2014.
1:6 now aged over 55
MSM- new diagnosis HIV positive - 3,360 in 2014
Decline in HIV diagnoses through heterosexual sex, largely due to a reduction in diagnoses among black African men and women.
Major challenge in the UK is timely diagnosis in order to start lifesaving ART and prevent onward transmission of infection.
2 out of 5 in 2014, newly diagnosed with ‘late stage’ HIV.
Late diagnosis is associated with a tenfold increased risk of death with one year of diagnosis.
In 2014, 613 people with HIV died, most were late diagnosis.
Urgent need to increase HIV testing opportunities in line with HIV testing guidelines (2008)
