The article discusses a study which investigated the potential impact of hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment on HCV infection prevalence among people who inject drugs (PWID) in Victoria using mathematical modelling. Researchers found that HCV infection prevalence could be halved, based on modest rates of current HCV treatment among PWID in Victoria. It concludes that interventions aimed at increasing access to HCV treatment will benefit individual PWID. |
