Treatment cures over 95% of people with hepatitis C. About one in four people clear hepatitis C on their own, but most people need treatment to cure hepatitis C. If someone doesn’t clear the virus after six months, they have a chronic hepatitis C infection. Remember that the only way to know if you have hepatitis C is to get tested. If you have hepatitis C, talk to your nurse or doctor about your treatment options. Treatment comes in pill form, has few side effects and is usually taken for eight or 12 weeks. For most people, the cost of treatment is covered through public health insurance plans (provincial, territorial, or federal). Private insurance plans may also cover the cost of treatment. There is no vaccine to prevent hepatitis C infection, and no one is immune to hepatitis C. Even if you have had hepatitis C before, you can get it again if the virus gets into your blood. You will need to be treated again if your body does not clear the virus on its own.

You can have hepatitis C for many years without having symptoms or feeling sick, even though the virus may be injuring your liver. The only way to know if you have hepatitis C is to get tested. Knowing if you have hepatitis C early and getting cured means there is less time for your liver to become injured by the hepatitis C virus. It takes two different blood tests to tell if you have hepatitis C: The first test is a screening or hepatitis C antibody test. It checks to see if you have ever had hepatitis C. The second test is a confirmatory or hepatitis C viral load test. It checks to see if you have hepatitis C right now. Sometimes both tests are done using blood collected at a single visit and sometimes you will need to return to provide a new blood sample for the second test. Talk to your nurse or doctor about getting tested for hepatitis C

Did you know July 28 is World Hepatitis Day? Hepatitis C is an infection in the liver caused by the hepatitis C virus. Over time, the virus causes liver injury and scarring and can make you very sick. The hepatitis C virus gets into the blood through breaks in the skin or in the lining of the nose and mouth. Hepatitis C is a strong virus: it can survive in a tiny drop of blood that is too small to see and can live outside of the body for many days. In certain conditions, such as inside a syringe, the virus can survive for many weeks. This means dried blood can also pass the virus.

June 6, 2025, marks five years since the Islamophobic terrorist attack that took the lives of four members of the London community: Salman Afzaal (46), Madiha Salman (44), Talat Afzaal (74), and Yumna Afzaal (15).

The impact of this attack is still deeply felt by those who knew and loved the Afzaal family, by Muslim children who now grow up more aware of the dangers their faith and identity may invite, and by the greater London community. The Afzaal family was one of us.

Islamophobia kills. It threatens the safety, dignity, and belonging of Muslims across Canada and around the world. Honouring the Afzaal family means confronting the systems and ideologies that enable hate. It means challenging racism in our institutions, in our communities, and in ourselves.

We must commit to building a society where every person, regardless of faith or background, can live with dignity and without fear. This is not a symbolic fight. It is a matter of justice, life, and death.
