摘要
In April 2015, in partnership with the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Gilead Sciences, the country of Georgia launched the world's first national HCV elimination programme, aiming to reduce HCV prevalence by 90% by 2020. After 2 years of progress, how can the Georgia experience inform global approaches to eliminating HCV?
