Our latest campaign
A new campaign has been launched by the Scottish Government to
raise awareness of Hepatitis C amongst the public in Scotland.
The campaign seeks to make people aware of Hepatitis C as a cause
of liver disease, the type of activities that put people at
risk of catching the virus, and that treatment is available in
Scotland which can cure up to 80% of those infected.
A separate campaign has also been launched to raise awareness of
Hepatitis C amongst doctors, nurses and other health professionals
who may come into contact with people living with the virus but
unaware they are infected. The aim of this campaign is to ensure
that as many people as possible at risk from Hepatitis C are
offered a test and, if positive, treated for the virus.
The awareness campaigns are part of the Scottish Government's Hepatitis C Action Plan for Scotland.
