Forming part of the HCV Action National Hepatitis C ODN Stakeholder Webinar series, this webinar looked at what we know of reinfections and how to prevent them, as well as harm reduction services and their benefits.
Speakers from Public Health England, The Hepatitis C Trust, and NHS England gave talks on how reinfections tie into elimination efforts, and hosted a Q&A session to answer audience questions.

Eighteen months on from the start of NHS England’s hepatitis C elimination deal, HCV Action’s annual ODN event, co-hosted with the British Viral Hepatitis Group, explored how the UK has progressed towards elimination. It particularly focused on overcoming the challenges posed by the significant disruption of Covid-19 on healthcare services. This year’s event was held as a half-day webinar due to coronavirus-related restrictions and welcomed 129 participants from almost all ODNs and partner services.
