Considering central role of people, patient engagement, & communication as #HealthSystem building blocks to effectively support clinical #HCV elimination efforts @JVLazarus. Good morning #EASLmono, let's do some paradigm shifting. @EASLedu @Hep_Alliance @HepatitisEurope #NOhep
Adding enhanced #HCV #testing & #treatment pathways for #PWID and #OST populations, such as pilot trial of community pharmacy pathway projects a >65% reduction in prevalence & prevent significant onward transmission. This is what treatment innovation looks like. #EASLmono #NOhep
Always appreciate Magdalena Harris' work & re-framing dialogue around #HCV and #PWID as heterogeneous populations. Engaged treatment must reach the most marginalized, not just more stable PWID populations. Instead of "tinkering around the edges of elimination" #EASLmono @INHepSU
