Hepatitis C is a devastating
viral disease that generally progresses slowly, meaning patients often remain
asymptomatic and unaware they are infected until very serious and often
expensive complications emerge as a result of damage to the liver. It is estimated that
about half of those infected are not aware that they carry the virus. The
recent remarkable advances in treating hepatitis C built on incremental
improvements achieved over the previous two decades to transform hepatitis C from a chronic,
fatal disease, to an infection that with new and forthcoming treatments, can be
potentially cured.
