The stats you supposedly pulled out of your hairy arse actually line up with the NSW Health report:

And according to this guideline, there’s no solid evidence that Aussie sex workers have higher STI rates than the general population....the jury’s still out.

Either way, no matter how you skin this animal, the per-capita STI rate is ridiculously low like around 0.2%. So all the bareback riders can breathe a sigh of relief.
That said, other studies suggest sex workers have STI rates 8–60 times higher than the general population. Which means if you’re raw dogging your way from high-end brothels to seedy RnTs, your odds of catching something jump to 1.8%–12%.
