Hi Susan,

Thanks for that link. We were discussing this yesterday and I'll provide the link to that. We found a couple more links to information on that same subject. Very interesting to say the least! There is a study underway and I hope they are successful finding an answer that could make inexpensive Tx available everywhere. Wouldn't that be a blessing....

Could An Allergy Drug Treat Hepatitis C?

Just an interesting bit of the latest news on Hep C treatment.

The drug is CCZ so if this link doesn't work just try CCZ and Hepatitis C. 

A drug that's been around for decades may help find a new solution for an expensive chronic disease
