HIV prevention in the UK currently includes measures to educate people about HIV/AIDS and how it is passed on so that they can take measures to protect themselves (by using condoms for example); encourage harm reduction measures for drug users (such as needle exchange programmes); and promote HIV testing.
It is widely felt by those working in HIV/AIDS organizations and the healthcare sector that HIV prevention in the UK needs to be stepped up and improved as the number of new infections continues to rise as the level of knowledge of the virus falls.
