star this property answer text <p>Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV has been shown to be an effective intervention to reduce the risk of HIV infection. A randomised controlled trial of PrEP in the United Kingdom found an 86% reduction in the risk of HIV infection in gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men prescribed PrEP. A finding supported by data from New South Wales in Australia where a rapid decline in HIV diagnoses was seen in the 12 months following the introduction of PrEP.</p><p> </p><p>With the development of internet self-purchasing in 2015, PrEP use in England is thought to have quadrupled during 2016 so that an estimated 3,000 gay and bisexual men were taking PrEP by year end. It is probable that this scale-up of PrEP use will have had an effect at reducing underlying HIV incidence, additional to the effect of intensified HIV testing and the immediate treatment of those newly diagnosed as living with HIV. However, it is too soon to estimate the size of this additional effect from available data. The HIV PrEP Impact trial funded by NHS England began in October 2017 to understand questions on PrEP eligibility, uptake and duration of use, and impact on HIV and other sexually transmitted infections.</p>

star this property answer text <p>The National Health Service Long Term Plan sets out specific workforce actions developed by NHS Improvement and others to have positive impact for workforces, including the screening and diagnostic workforce. NHS Improvement and the Department will discuss these actions when the education and training budget for Health Education England is set in 2019. This includes a proposal to recruit an additional 1,500 clinical and diagnostic staff across seven priority specialisms between 2018 and 2021.</p><p> </p><p>With specific reference to the national cervical screening programme that includes NHS laboratories, the replacement of liquid based cytology with human papillomavirus (HPV) testing as the primary screen, has had a significant impact on the ability to maintain staff in the cervical screening programme’s laboratory workforce. The HPV pilot evaluation suggested that the need for a cytology workforce could reduce by as much as 85% when HPV testing is introduced as the primary screen during 2019.</p><p> </p><p>NHS England is undertaking a national procurement process to secure providers of laboratory services to deliver HPV primary screening across England. The outcome of the process will be known by the end of April 2019, with national coverage in place by December 2019.</p><p> </p><p>To maintain the service and accommodate current staffing levels a majority of existing HPV pilot sites and some non-pilot sites have already converted more of their cervical screening activity to HPV primary screening, freeing up cytology capacity.</p><p> </p><p>In addition, Professor Sir Mike Richards is leading a major review of national cancer screening programme pathways as part of the NHS Long Term Plan’s renewed drive to improve care and save lives. Professor Richards’ review is due to report in summer 2019.</p>
