Abstract

According to Italian data, people who inject drugs (PWID) have high prevalence of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection (30-60%). PWID have inadequate access to directly acting antivirals (DAA) due to (1) their mistrust towards the healthcare system and (2) the lack of coordination between medical specialists who play a pivotal role in the diagnosis and treatment of HCV infection. We aim to describe the HCV -treatment cascade of care in Trieste on PWID.
