During January 2017-March 2020, approximately 2.2 million noninstitutionalized civilian US adults had hepatitis C; one-third were unaware of their infection. Prevalence was substantially higher among persons who were uninsured or experiencing poverty. Unrestricted access to testing and curative treatment is needed to reduce disparities and achieve 2030 elimination goals.
在 2017 年 1 月至 2020 年 3 月期间,大约有 220 万非机构化的美国成年平民患有丙型肝炎;其中三分之一的人不知道自己被感染。在没有保险或贫困的人群中,患病率要高得多。需要无限制地获得检测和治疗,以减少差距,实现 2030 年消除目标。
