Abstract

At least 3 million people in the United States are infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Unfortunately, 75% of infected individuals remain undiagnosed and untreated, putting them at risk of advanced liver disease. Because the majority of infected individuals are baby boomers, many societies and organizations recommend HCV screening of persons born between 1945 and 1965.
