It's National Hepatitis C Awareness Day in Quebec!

On April 29,2024, Quebec’s National Hepatitis C Awareness Day, we are calling out the government for its glaring lack of leadership in the fight to eliminate hepatitis C by 2030. 

Quebec is the province that has fallen furthest behind in meeting this goal, and no action plan is currently on the table. 

Given the challenges of access to care and treatment, concern is growing. The 32 member organizations of the provincial hepatitis C committee are mobilizing to propose effective, realistic and sustainable solutions, inspired by documented practices and adapted to the needs of Quebecers.
