No specific activities were undertaken as part of STIQ day. We remain committed to continuing to reduce rates of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). To support this ambition, Public Heath England launched the ‘Protect against STIs’ campaign on 15 December 2017 aimed at 16 to 24-year-olds. The campaign uses innovative, nationwide digital advertising to highlight the increased likelihood of contracting an STI if having sex without a condom and help normalise condom use.
