Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is a bloodborne virus that primarily affects the liver, leading to inflammation and potential liver damage. It is mainly transmitted through contact with infected blood, often through sharing needles or other drug paraphernalia. HCV can cause both acute and chronic infections, with many individuals remaining asymptomatic for years. Chronic Hepatitis C can lead to serious health issues, including liver cirrhosis and liver cancer. There are effective treatments available that can cure most cases of HCV, significantly reducing the risk of long-term complications. Regular screening and early detection are essential for managing the virus effectively.
