An article in Melbourne Insider covers the launch of HepLink's national hepatitis C telehealth service, designed to improve access to hepatitis C testing and treatment across the country.
It outlines the progress made over the past decade since hepatitis C cures were listed on the PBS, with high treatment numbers and a significant drop in people living with the virus.
The article also notes that thousands of Australians are still living with hepatitis C, many unaware, and that improving testing and connection to care remains a priority.
