Our latest paper now available in @HIV_Medicine examined mortality among people who inject drugs living with HIV in Scotland over a 20-year period and found increases over time, driven by a rise in drug-related deaths. OAT [again] was protective.

Brilliant series, especially episode 2, which mentions the HIV outbreak in Scottish Prisons years ago. Unfortunately, HIV related stigma & discrimination still remain massive issues for people living in prison. #factsnotmyths #educationiskey bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

Reduced services mean a lack of rehabilitation, behaviour courses, reskilling opportunities and treatment, which means no support – or opportunities – to change, to build a new way of living.

"The reality is that prisons have a job to do – to work with (most) of those imprisoned so they are ready to rejoin and contribute to society" Our chief executive @karynmccluskey's latest column @TheScotsman reflects on the prison population crisis ⬇️ scotsman.com/news/opinion/c…

About 1,750 people in the UK are living with an undiagnosed hepatitis C infection after being given a transfusion with contaminated blood, according to BBC analysis. bbc.co.uk/news/health-68…


Very sad state of affairs! 😔

STV has become the latest outlet to report on Scotland's rising prison population, which has now surpassed 8,100. SPS' Jim Kerr spoke of the impact this is having on day to day operations news.stv.tv/scotland/scotl…

The number of deaths caused by hepatitis is increasing, from 1.1 to 1.3 million per year. We only have a few years to change this trend by 2030. What are we waiting for? @WHO @Hep_Alliance #WorldHepatitisSummit 2024 #HepCantWait
