Key Words Mathematical modelling; Projections; Hepatitis C virus elimination; Direct-acting antivirals; Screening campaigns
Core Tip Direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) that can eliminate hepatitis C virus are not yet available in the Republic of Cyprus. However, when DAAs become available, a long-term strategic plan to guide elimination efforts will be needed to maximize the effect of treatment. To achieve the elimination goals, 3080 patients need to be diagnosed and treated by 2034 (2680 from the general population and 400 from people who inject drugs) and harm reduction coverage among people who inject drugs should be increased by 3% per year.
