Good points, Malcolm. Liked as well the emphasis on testing/diagnosis. Is it true Australia has an 85+% diagnosis rate? If so, wow.. light years ahead of us.

Hi Wayne,

Good link. The important points are that 'it's not just a liver disease' and 'you can be reinfected'.

Treasure your SVR and don't go back to unsafe practices. Cheers.
