Hepatitis C elimination

The motion

That this House recognises that the blood-borne virus hepatitis C, which disproportionately affects disadvantaged and marginalised communities, is preventable, treatable and curable; notes that the United Kingdom’s commitment to achieve the World Health Organization’s goal to eliminate hepatitis C as a public health concern by 2030 would have a huge impact on health inequalities; and calls upon the Government to celebrate World Hepatitis Day on 28 July by reaffirming its commitment to meet the WHO 2030 target, guided by a comprehensive Hepatitis Elimination Action Plan.
