About hepatitis C
Hepatitis C is a viral infection that affects the liver. It can cause liver inflammation and, over time, liver injury. Many people have no symptoms and don’t know they are living with hepatitis C.
Hepatitis C can be cured with medication in just a few months. Without medication, hepatitis C can lead to serious liver damage, including liver failure.
It's never too late to get tested or treated for hepatitis C.
We are charting a path to eliminate hepatitis C by 2030!
Across Ontario, the Hepatitis C Elimination Roadmap Ontario is working alongside healthcare, government, and community partners to:
- Expand hepatitis C testing with focused outreach to communities experiencing the highest burden.
- Streamline access to curative treatment by integrating care across settings and reducing practical and system barriers.
- Advance policy and health system improvements that support prevention, equitable access, and sustained progress toward elimination.
