Retarding the eventual development of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma by persons having hepatitis C

Sporadic transmission of hepatitis C

At the present time, people having contracted hepatitis C are not warned about the possible ways in which they can transmit this disease to others. This greatly increases the risk of sporadic transmission of the virus. Public health and medical authorities should institute programs to inform all such afflicted persons how to avoid communicating the disease to others.
