Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2000 In the latter half of the 20th century, HCV emerged as the most common cause of chronic liver disease, and will likely remain so. Since its initial discovery in 1989, rapid progress has been made in our understanding of the virology, epidemiology, natural history, diagnosis, and treatment of HCV.

La Clinica terapeutica, 1996 HCV carriers are supposed to me 100,000,000 worldwide. 5-15% of subjects are infected via haemotransfusion and another significant amount via intravenous drugs; nevertheless in the major part of subjects the via of transmission remains unclear. HCV causes long-term infectious in the host because of its high frequency of mutations.
