Hepatitis C Virus in people with experience of injection drug use following their displacement to Southern Ukraine before 2020

Hepatitis C Virus in people with experience of injection drug use following their displacement to Southern Ukraine before 2020

Abstract Background Due to practical challenges associated with genetic sequencing in low-resource environments, the burden of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in forcibly displaced people is understudied. We examined the use of field applicable HCV sequencing methods and phylogenetic analysis to determine H...
