Simplification of testing and treatment in the quest to eliminate hepatitis C infection
Globally, 71 million people are living with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, but the burden of HCV continues to increase. Between 2015 and 2030, WHO targets include reducing new HCV infections by 80% and HCV deaths by 65%, and increasing HCV diagnoses from <20% to 90% and the number of eligible persons receiving HCV treatment from <10% to 80%. To achieve these targets, targeted interventions are needed to enhance HCV testing, linkage to care, and treatment (“the HCV care cascade”). This presentation reviews available evidence on strategies that have been successfully used to enhance HCV testing, linkage to care.

Get the Right Test
The flu season is variable and its impact widespread. This challenge is compounded by the coinciding RSV and Strep A season. On Get The Right Test, you can learn how rapid molecular testing can reduce collection-to-result time, decrease number the of tests performed, and support antimicrobial stewardship. Stay in the know by signing up for weekly flu tracker updates during the flu season.
Diagnostics First
Each time a microorganism becomes resistant to an antibiotic, we lose another weapon in the war against infection. Fight back against antibiotic resistance with diagnostics first. Sign up today to receive customized, educational content and learn how on-demand molecular testing can help achieve your institution’s Infection Prevention and Antimicrobial Stewardship goals.
