The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is organizing a virtual two-day meeting, hosted by the Association of Public Health Laboratories, to discuss improving hepatitis C virus (HCV) diagnostics. The meeting aims to collect individual feedback on methods like same-day diagnosis and viral-first testing, without seeking a group consensus. Public comments can be submitted online until February 19, 2025. The feedback received will be used to guide future hepatitis C testing strategies and will be documented in a report for reference.
Simple Explanation
The CDC is hosting a big online meeting to talk about how to find and treat people with hepatitis C faster. Lots of different experts will share their ideas, but they won't have to agree on one thing.
