Überraschenderweise ist der Suchtest auf Hepatitis C positiv (anti-HCV). Das Erbgut des Virus (HCV-RNA) ist ebenfalls nachweisbar.

Wir bestellen im Labor die Leberwerte nach, die leicht erhöht sind.

Nontargeted hepatitis C virus (HCV) screening was superior to targeted screening for identifying #HCV infection in the emergency department.

Really important point - HepC antivirals are amazing and have been transformative, but they have also led to a massive reduction in HCV research when a vaccine is still ultimately what is needed
This summer, I celebrated with friends whose three-year-old was cured of hepatitis C acquired at birth. It felt like a miracle made possible by science. Millions of people still cannot access cure, and being cured does not protect someone from reinfection.

#HarmReduction #IDSky #OneLifeOneLiver We kept running into challenges helping our least stably housed patients keep in touch with us during Hep C treatment, so we had wristbands made (the color is an homage to HCV ribobn, the inside has phone numbers to our HCV team). They finally arrived today!

I've spent my life criticizing public health on HIV, on TB, on HCV, on mpox, on COVID--but the "public health failed" narrative is off-the-mark. Here's why. 9/

Last week, our PhD student Joanne and I attended HCV-Flavi in Copenhagen ...and so did the lab of our alumna Selma Dahmane! Photo of Carlson+Dahmane attendees on the last evening, at Tivoli Gardens. Great time!

🦠 Toward a Hepatitis C Vaccine

Scientists in a new @science.org study designed molecules that teach the immune system to fight many Hepatitis C strains, a step closer to a universal vaccine.

Could this end a global health threat?

In the United States, HCC deaths may have plateaued and soon be on the decline due to successful HCV elimination

However, persistent increases in MASLD and ALD-related HCC threaten these trends

Me either. Even fragmented mRNA should break down quickly.

RNA presence is considered active infection in other viral conditions.

What did we learn about vaccines during the pandemic? Florian Krammer at the @www.helmholtz.de #covipa symposium. One interesting point: in contrast to other viruses (HCV, HIV etc.), it was quite easy to develop vaccines.

Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Efficacy in Pregnant People With Hepatitis C Virus
Treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) during pregnancy can cure maternal HCV and prevent perinatal HCV transmission. The primary objective was to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of sofosbuvir (SOF)/velpatasvir (VEL) in pregnant versus nonpregnant people.

What about autoimmune disease, you may ask? That and chronic viral infections are not mutually exclusive. I always order hepatitis C as part of an autoimmune vasculitic screen. Viruses can promote immune dysregulation, often as a way of subverting the host antiviral response.
Hepatitis C virus infection and autoimmune diseases
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is associated with a number of extrahepatic disorders. The most studied conditions associated with HCV are type II mixed cryoglobulinemia and B cell lymphoma. However...
