Freya Saich from EC Australia showing #hepC elimination priorities resulting from a policy analysis and stakeholders consultations #WorldHepatitisDay

"If 2 billionaires had raced to eliminate diseases, one chose #hepB and one chose #hepC, imagine where we'd be," Margaret Hellard says 🚀 should be launched in the direction of hepatitis elimination in closing remarks for our #WorldHepatitisDay symposium. Thanks all who attended!

Australia can achieve World Health Organization (WHO) target to eliminate #hepC as public health threat. First, we must find thousands who are unaware of their infection 🔎 and get them treated. To reach priority populations we need creative strategies and partnerships. #HepCantWait #WorldHepatitisDay

Today we launched the first part of our 2021 Annual Report of Trends in Behaviour, focusing on #hepatitisB + #hepatitisC highlighting our contribution to 4 key issues: 1. need for more research on hepatitis B, esp. social + cultural knowledge + settings of affected communities

Good news! Recent legal changes in Victoria mean it is no longer a crime for community members to pass on sterile needles and syringes. It's been illegal even though it's impt to avoid hep C & HIV.

We spoke with John Dillon from University of Dundee NHS Tayside to discuss how his team became the first region in the world to effectively eliminate #hepatitisC.⁠ ⁠ inhsu.org/articles/meet-… #HCV #Hepc

Very happy to share our recent paper in Liver International on #HCV care in primary care and community services. More evidence that a) people who currently and/or recently inject drugs can be cured of #HCV & b) treatment in primary care is feasible and effective onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

Experiences of health care are diverse. Our team are specifically seeking people in Queensland, Victoria and NSW who identify as trans or non-binary to discuss their experience of treatment for #hepatitisC and life after cure. More info here: genderlawanddrugs.org/2021/08/16/pos…
