Get tested for hepatitis C

Barbara Bruchert from Counties Manukau Health

A new, free and easier treatment for all types of hepatitis C is now available and can be prescribed by your family doctor. This treatment can cure the disease.

Hepatitis C is transmitted by blood-to-blood contact. The most common way of contracting hepatitis C is through intravenous drug use, but there are many other ways people can get the virus, from receiving medical treatment overseas, to getting a tattoo.

Go to www.gethepctested.co.nz... to find out if you are at increased risk of having hepatitis C. If you think you are, ask your family doctor for a blood test.
