Hepatitis C Cascade of Care in BC, 2020

By [posts-author-link] on [date]

  • Integration of various data sources enables HCV monitoring across the care cascade to assess program effectiveness.
  • The majority of anti-HCV positive individuals were tested for RNA and genotyping.
  • Very small proportion of HCV infected individuals received treatment.
  • People with HIV coinfection and drug use despite being in liver care were less likely to receive treatment.
