ECDC publishes the sexually transmitted infections including HIV and blood-borne viruses chapter of the Annual Epidemiological Report 2014. It includes data from 2012 on the following diseases: chlamydia, gonorrhoea, hepatitis B virus infection, hepatitis C virus infection, HIV/AIDS and syphilis.

​This ECDC surveillance report on STI in Europe describes the epidemiological features and basic trends of the five STI under EU surveillance, Chlamydia trachomatis infection, gonorrhoea, syphilis, congenital syphilis, and lymphogranuloma venereum.

This guidance, based on a systematic review of the literature and expert opinion, suggests that there is good evidence to ensure that some key components are considered for inclusion in national and sub-national public health programmes in countries in Europe.
