Prisons (Infectious Diseases)

Volume 136: debated on Monday 27 June 1988

The text on this page has been created from Hansard archive content, it may contain typographical errors.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will list for each prison the incidence of infectious disease, by disease, for the last (a) 12, (b) 24, (c) 36, (d) 48 and (e) 60 months.

The information available relates to four infective conditions; tuberculosis, hepatitis A, hepatitis B (including carriers) and HIV. The information may not be complete as it deals only with the cases which were identified and reported, and it may include some double counting owing to movements of prisoners during the year. The available information for 1983 relates to tuberculosis only.
