Ending Hepatitis C: A Seven-step Plan for a Successful Eradication Program: A Roadmap for Ending Endemic Disease Globally - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Just a few years ago, Egypt and the United States had approximately the same number of people infected with chronic hepatitis C. Today, Egypt has been declared virtually free of the disease, while the opioid crisis is driving an increase in hepatitis C infection rates in the United States.

In their latest book, Dr. William Haseltine and Kaelyn Varner, MPH, discuss lessons from the success of Egypt’s 100 Million Healthy Lives initiative and how those programs can be modified and scaled in countries of all economic levels. They identify the seven universal steps that can be adapted to eliminate any endemic disease, such as HIV, malaria and tuberculosis, in any country. The book also provides a detailed account of the history, transmission, impact on the body, available treatments, and the ongoing efforts to eliminate this disease.
