CDC Public Health Grand Rounds – The 25th Anniversary of the Discovery of the Hepatitis C Virus

Twenty-five years ago CDC played a pivotal role in the discovery of the hepatitis C virus (HCV). After the isolation of HCV, implementation of screening of blood products and organs for donation led to a decrease in rates of HCV infection between 1990 and 2009. In spite of these successes, HCV remains a serious threat. This session discusses how new screening guidelines, testing methods and therapeutic advances provide an opportunity to improve individual outcomes and to eventually eliminate HCV infection. Continuing Education Credits are available.
