Methamphetamine injection independently predicts hepatitis C infection among street-involved youth in a Canadian setting.

Abstract

Street-involved youth are an important population with respect to hepatitis C. We therefore undertook this study to determine factors associated with HCV-antibody-positive status among street-involved youth. Vulnerabilities included injection drug use and at least once-daily heroin and crystal methamphetamine injection. Implementing injection drug use prevention, evidence-based opioid substitution and crystal methamphetamine treatment programs for street-involved youth is critical.
