摘要：
Viral hepatitis type C is a worldwide public health problem of major concern. Waiting for a safe and effective vaccine able to confer protection to susceptible individuals, public health challenges for controlling hepatitis C require implementation of primary prevention measures that reduce risks of acquiring/transmitting HCV infection. Screening for safe blood and blood products, use of disposable syringes and needles and of universal precautions have dramatically reduced risk of infection in medical setting. Health education, counselling and testing of individuals at risk provide opportunities for controlling HCV infection. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
