In 2020, CDC recommended hepatitis C screening at least once in a lifetime for all adults aged ≥18 years, as well as for all pregnant women during each pregnancy
We offer free screening for Hepatitis C.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) can cause a serious and sometimes fatal infection of the liver. The virus is spread primarily when blood from an infected person enters the body of someone who is not infected. For some persons, HCV causes no symptoms or only a mild illness which resolves over a few weeks. For the majority of infected persons, however, untreated HCV causes a serious, chronic illness.
