A member asked:

What important information should a person with hepatitis c be aware of?

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

To protect partners: Anyone who has being exposed to hep c most likely will expose a partner. Think safe sex, if you are married then your partner needs to be vaccinated against hep b. Most likely in the long run your partner will be exposed also to hep c.

Dr Ali and another doctor agreed
