Today, we granted marketing authorization to the first hepatitis C virus (HCV) test that can be used to bring diagnosis to appropriately certified point-of-care settings for individuals at risk for hepatitis C, including certain substance use disorder treatment facilities, correctional facilities, and syringe service programs as well as testing in certain doctor’s offices, emergency departments, and urgent care clinics operating under a CLIA Certificate of Waiver. fda.gov/news-events/pr… Rather than requiring a sample to be sent to a central lab for testing, the test detects HCV RNA and delivers results in about an hour using a blood sample from the fingertip.

Did you know? @cdchep recommends universal testing of ALL adults for hepatitis C at least once in their lifetime and periodic testing of people with ongoing risk factors. Get tested and spread the word during #HepatitisAwarenessMonth! bit.ly/4aMFGdA

Today members of End Hep C SF’s Coordinating Committee and the original SF Hep C Task Force met to honor Robin Roth’s retirement from #HCV work. Robin has been a tireless advocate in the community and will be sorely missed. Thank you, Robin, for your leadership and dedication!

According to the @WHO 2024 Global Hepatitis Report urgent action is needed to reduce new cases and prevent deaths. #hepC is curable & could be eliminated with sufficient investment in prevention & treatment. We must get back on track to eliminate #HCV bit.ly/3xIdxG7

Great article in @latimes by Dr. Benor: “A strategic, coordinated plan of testing & tx would lower (#hepc) levels rapidly... reducing disease inside and outside the jails. The continuing failure to undertake such an effort is deadly & unconscionable.” bit.ly/3vDdPgG

“Put simply, we are squandering one of the most important medical advances of the 21st century. It’s time to eliminate this threat to the health of Americans” - Dr. Francis Collins #hepC can be cured with oral medications in just 8-12 weeks. bit.ly/4bZcK3k
