[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 667110, member: 18958"] Yes, my son has Hep B. I wonder what will happen with the Hep C treatment. It is considered to be almost a cure. I wonder if it will be available through public State and Federal medical funding, in Veterans Hospitals and in Prisons. It should. I think. For the public good. Interferon is currently used in prisons. I doubt if it is cheap. Antivirals, which are currently available to treat but not cure Hep B cost close to a thousand a month. When you think of lifetime cost of care, it makes sense to me that paying the money to cure the disease makes sense. But maybe I am wrong. I am interested in what you all think. [/QUOTE]
