Figures for sexually transmitted infections in Luxembourg show mixed trends over the last five years, according to Health and Social Security Minister Martine Deprez.
The figures were provided in response to a parliamentary question from MP Mars Di Bartolomeo of the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party (LSAP).
A total of 37 HIV diagnoses were recorded in 2025, down slightly from 39 the previous year and the lowest figure in the five-year period covered by the data. HIV diagnoses had reached a high of 68 in 2022.
Syphilis cases, meanwhile, rose for the third consecutive year, reaching 165 in 2025. This was 18 more than in 2024, 56 more than in 2023, and 70 more than in 2022.
Chlamydia remained the most commonly recorded infection, with 1,554 cases in 2025. This represented a slight decrease from 1,619 in 2024 and was broadly in line with the figures recorded since 2022.
The number of gonorrhoea cases fell more sharply, from 689 in 2024 to 469 in 2025. Hepatitis B cases also declined, from 253 to 201.
The ministerial response also provided an update on plans to make condoms available free of charge. A working group is currently preparing the measures needed to introduce the scheme in 2027, in cooperation with organisations working in the field.
Just over €805,000 has been included in the funding requests for Luxembourg's proposed 2027 budget.
