The Sexual Health and Blood
Borne Virus Framework
(Sexual Health, HIV, Hepatitis C and Hepatitis B)
Previous Policy
• Sexual Health
– Respect and Responsibility (end Mar 11)
• HIV
– HIV Action Plan (2009 – 2014)
• Hepatitis C
– Hepatitis C Action Plan Phase II (end Mar 11)
• Hepatitis B
– No existing policy other than vaccination
– Acknowledged requirement to establish the landscape of Hep
B in Scotland; consider and implement proposals to begin to
address current and future disease burden
Framework Outcomes
1. Fewer newly acquired blood borne virus and sexually
transmitted infections; fewer unintended pregnancies
2. A reduction in the health inequalities gap in sexual
health and blood borne viruses
3. People affected by blood borne viruses lead longer,
healthier lives
4. Sexual relationships are free from coercion and harm
5. A society whereby the attitudes of individuals, the
public, professionals and the media in Scotland
towards sexual health and blood borne viruses are
positive, non-stigmatising and supportive

Hepatitis C Action Plan for Scotland:
Aims
•To prevent the spread of Hepatitis C,
particularly among IDUs.
•To diagnose Hepatitis C infected persons,
particularly those who would most benefit
from treatment.
•To ensure that those infected receive
optimal treatment, care and support.

Hepatitis C Action Plan for Scotland
Phase II
• Launched: May 2008 by Health Minister
• 34 Actions
• All Actions to develop/improve services:
Prevention
Diagnosis

• is a high level one
• embraces all service needs
• adopts a multidisciplinary approach
• covers all geographical areas and settings
• is performance managed
• addresses inequalities
• is supported by serious investment

Summary 1
• The foundations have been laid: coordination
including networks.
• Considerable progress on treatment front.
• Positive signs that progress is being made in
identifying infected persons.
• Early indications that paraphernalia provision
may be having a considerable impact.
Summary 2
• On reflection four key elements to securing the plan
: Advocacy via patient representative groups
: Epidemiological data
: Clinical leadership
: Therapeutic developments
• On reflection three key elements to sustaining the
plan and making it successful
: Strong governance
: Programme Management approach
: Adequate funding
• Phase III including the incorporation of Hepatitis B
underway.
