The hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome was isolated during the late 1980s using molecular cloning techniques. It is recognized as the cause of most cases of percutaneously transmitted non-A, non-B hepatitis. Prevalence of antibodies to HCV (anti-HCV) in the general Australian population is 0.370. However; among regular intravenous drug users the prevalence

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection afflicts millions of people in the United States and worldwide. We examine the epidemiology of HCV infection, the molecular biology of the virus, the pathophysiology of infection, the clinical diagnosis and manifestations of infection, and the treatment of HCV infection.
