I did neither needles nor gay sex, but still got Hep C somehow. I suspect from a dentist (back in the day they didn't sanitize tools the way they do these days). Or, perhaps I got it somehow in my travels... haven't a clue.

Anyway... since I buy my own health insurance (and have done so ever since I left the corporate world 9 years ago) I can't have access to this cure... which really sucks.

So far the only people who are getting this wonder drug are people on welfare. Go figure.

I hear you. I recall a large number of Philadelphia firefighters acting as first responders also becoming infected. More sterile handling of wounded people has improved that but so many were infected many years ago, when there wasn’t even a test for it.

My best friend who also never did drugs, etc. died from scirrosis at age 50 from Hep-C. They figured she got it when she worked as a nurses aid before all the ‘needle prick’ safety stuff.
