| Core Tip |
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a global health concern associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The introduction of well-tolerated oral direct-acting antiviral agents in late 2013 has revolutionized HCV management with over 90% cure rates. Equitable access to these agents remains an important issue, given that countries with the greatest burden of disease have the least access to curative therapies. Here we provide a literature review of HCV, changes in epidemiologic trends, current therapies, and highlight inequities in the burden of disease and access to treatment. |
