HIV in the U.K.
HIV is associated with serious morbidity, high costs of treatment and care,
significant mortality and high number of potential years of life lost.
Thousands of individuals are diagnosed with HIV each year. The infection is
still frequently regarded as stigmatising and has a prolonged ‘silent’ period
during which it often remains undiagnosed.
Anti-retroviral therapy has resulted in substantial reductions in AIDS incidence
and deaths in the UK. People diagnosed promptly with HIV can expect near
normal life expectancy. Challenges remain, with high rates of late HIV
diagnoses and an ageing population.

HIV and Dual Diagnosis
Referring to the CODE statistics showing an increase in clients using
GHB/GLB, crystal meth and mephedrone, the Chemsex Study noted that
“changes in clinical presentations could reflect changes in drug use among
gay men broadly, but could also be the result of improved visibility and
awareness of these services and improved referral pathways between
professional services that work to meet the health needs of gay men.”
The increased demand at 56 Dean Street could be because its services have
been given greater prominence. When asked why certain men used drugs
for sex, Mr Stuart said there were many different reasons. “I know people
that do drugs because when they are lying in bed they don’t feel horny. Why
not? Well, sometimes growing up gay makes you feel different and you
become hyper-vigilant about being judged and rejected”.
19
From Pink News
Mr Stuart added: “And drugs make it all go away. It’s also that drugs feel really
good, sex does go on for a long time, for some people they don’t want to
think about HIV they feel diseased when they are in bed, which is a horrible
thing to say, but they don’t feel diseased when they are high and horny.
There are a lot of HIV positive guys who will only sleep with other HIV
positive guys to avoid disclosing it. And the drugs are a place to hide and
play where those conversations don’t happen.”

CD4 and Viral load
CD4
Measurements of CD4 (in cubic mm of blood) cells enable clinicians to monitor
virus progression.
1500 – 500 – Normal range
500 - Start of medications in USA and France
350 – Start of medications in U.K.
200 or below – Serious risk of catching something that will kill you in the short
term
21
CD4 and Viral load
Viral Load
Used by clinicians to monitor medication efficacy.
Count of millions not unusual during initial infection and with late diagnosis.
Viral load (copies of virus per cubic mm of blood) should be undetectable after
3 months of medication.
22
HIV and depression
Depression in PLWHIV: Wide variety of estimates from 0% to
80%, most estimate 20–30%
Problems with measuring instruments and cut‐off points
UK study: 26.6% had ‘moderate or severe (6.6%)’ depression,
cf. 7% in general population
US study: 22% ‘major depression’, 48% some depression or
anxiety

Poor adherence = a risk behaviour
• Unlikely to be sole explanation for the relationship between depression
and mortality, as depression can increase many risk behaviours
• In a UK study of HIV+ patients with depressive symptoms1:
– 24% missed no doses in past two weeks
– 34% missed 1–2 doses
– 42% missed >2 doses

• Viral load:
– For those without depression, 7.5% had detectable HIV virus, while in those
who had
depression, the figure was 16.3%1
• In a US meta‐analysis2 of 95 studies (n=36,000) depression (assessed
various ways) was associated with 20% poorer adherence overall
• Treated depression is associated with significantly better than average
adherence in several studies3

PARTNER study
Analysis of data from 2 years of study show that there was no single case of
HIV transmission between heterosexual and gay couples when the HIV+
person’s viral load was fully supressed.
Transmission can take place when a person has a suppressed viral load if they
have other S.T.I’s, as HIV sheds from reservoir in the gut.
