Serology results and self-reported diagnosis concordance : HIV, HCV, and syphilis / prepared by Grace Coles.: PS82-4/23-33E-PDF

"In collaboration with Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and the University of Ottawa, Correctional Service Canada (CSC) conducted the 2022 National Health Survey. One study objective was to determine the number and proportion of people in federal prisons living with Human Immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis C virus (HCV), and syphilis who are aware of their infection. These infectious diseases can be transmitted through risky behaviours including unprotected sex and needle sharing. This information can help inform offender health strategies and programs aimed to raise awareness of infectious diseases and promote safe behaviours."
