Core Tip In Mali, hepatitis C virus (HCV) studies have been mostly conducted among specific populations such as blood donors, patients suffering from chronic hepatitis or hemodialysis patients. Studies on the extent and epidemiology of HCV infection in the general Malian population are not abundant. The present study demonstrates that the risk factors classically associated to HCV infection, such as transfusion, are not dominant in this African population. The data presented in this paper have important implications in designing effective prevention strategies for human immunodeficiency virus and HCV infections.
