lüll Antiviral therapy for hepatitis C: why are so few patients being treated?Volk MLJ Antimicrob Chemother 2010[Jul]; 65 (7): 1327-9Despite the long-term morbidity associated with hepatitis C and the availability of effective treatment, fewer than a quarter of infected individuals are treated with antiviral therapy.

Fewer than half of chronic hepatitis C infections are diagnosed, relatively few are referred for treatment, and misperceptions about the disease and its treatment abound amongst patients and physicians alike.
