No matter how much people want to live happily and carefree, someone or something will still jump out from around the corner and ruin a person’s whole life. It could be a robber, a maniac, or a disease that is incurable or very difficult to treat. Hepatitis C is one of those serious diseases that is quite difficult to treat, but it is possible.
For many years, people remained powerless in the face of their diagnosis, and after a while, high-quality drugs began to appear that gave a piece of hope for recovery. Even the sale of the drug sofosbuvir, the panacea of which came to our world not so long ago, but has already become actively used in the fight against hepatitis C, became a real sensation and that very star of hope for a happy and healthy future.
Is it worth talking about how people suffered when they learned about their diagnosis, and most importantly, how the virus was transmitted? There is an opinion that the virus is only transmitted sexually or through a needle, which is usually used by drug addicts. With such clarity and only this supposedly method of infection, certain stereotypes began to appear and people who, by pure chance, found themselves with hepatitis C found themselves in a terrible situation. People looked at such patients with disdain and alienation, almost like people with HIV and AIDS. But even these diseases do not give the right to such stereotypical statements and views.
Previously, it was possible to become infected with hepatitis even in a hospital through a blood transfusion or vaccination. Even the medical community could be said to have been involved in the global infection of healthy patients. A regular blood transfusion could be decisive, and with the slightest operation, the patient could receive a couple more in addition to his problem. Today, medicine is extremely careful about patients and how to select blood or any tests, and has also switched to disposable medical supplies.
