Title: Hepatitis C Treatment as Prevention
Post by: Hep Editors on June 16, 2015, 11:26:37 am

For those who don’t know, there is currently an epidemic of sexually transmitted hep C among gay and bisexual men in Europe, North America and Australia.

However, a new modeling study conducted in the UK suggests that scaling up hep C treatment among men who have sex with men (MSM) up to 80 percent could literally halve the number of new cases among that population.
