3 Figure 1: Trend in anti-hcv prevalence* among people who inject drugs in England: (PHE) *During 2009 to 2011 there was a phased change in the sample collected in the survey from an oral fluid to dried blood spot (DBS). The sensitivity of the anti-hcv tests on these two sample types is different. The sensitivity of the oral fluid test for anti-hcv is approximately 92%, (28) that on DBS samples is close to 100%. Data presented here have been adjusted for the sensitivity of the oral fluid test.

Anti-HIV Prevalence = (number of samples tested anti-hiv positive / total tested)x100. Anti-HBc Prevalence = [(number of oral fluids anti-hbc positive/0.75) + number of DBS anti-hbc positive] / (number of oral fluids + number of DBS)x100. Anti-HCV Prevalence = [(number of oral fluids anti-hcv positive/0.92) + number of DBS anti-hcv positive] / (number of oral fluids + number of DBS)x100. Self reports of a swelling containing pus (abscess), sore, or open wound at an injection site in preceding year. Data source: Unlinked Anonymous Monitoring Survey of HIV and Hepatitis in People Who Inject Drugs

Sharing of needles and syringes, mixing containers, or filters among those who had last injected during the four weeks preceding participation in the survey.
