Treating HCV in a Captive Audience: Eradication Efforts in the Prison Microenvironment.

Joseph S Redman1, Richard K Sterling1.   

Abstract

Testing for and treating Hepatitis C (HCV) patients in the prison setting is effective in the short term to reducing the overall burden of HCV in the prison microenvironment, with growing evidence that such efforts could yield substantial overall benefits in the effort to eradicate HCV in society. However, rates of reinfection are as yet unknown.
