Analyse the issues surrounding confidentiality in the case study. Mr Andrew Johnson visits his local sexual health clinic with concerns that he may have contracted chlamydia. Mr Johnson has recently separated from his wife, who is pregnant with his child, and he currently has a new partner. The sexual health clinic routinely recommends a full sexual health screen including syphilis and HIV testing. The tests are explained to Mr Johnson and he decides that he would like to proceed with the tests. The results confirm that Mr Johnson does have chlamydia. The HIV test is also positive. Mr Johnson is then seen by Dr Hope, who confirms the test results and offers medical advice regarding treatment of both conditions. Dr Hope advises Mr Johnson that he would like to forward the results to his GP, so that treatment can be fully discussed and continued. Mr Johnson refuses consent for his GP to be notified as he is worried about discrimination. Dr Hope also advises that Mr Johnson should inform his previous and current sexual partners of both the chlamydia, and his HIV status. Mr Johnson agrees to tell his current partner about the chlamydia, but not the HIV. He refuses to inform his pregnant wife, who he has recently separated from, of either condition.
