A novel variant of genotype 7b hepatitis C virus emphasizing viral hepatitis elimination challenges for sub-Saharan Africa.

The Pan African medical journal - 1 Jan 2020

Sonderup Mark Wayne, Smuts Heidi, Spearman Catherine Wendy

Abstract excerpt

Sub-Saharan Africa has approximately 10.15 million people viraemic with chronic hepatitis C virus infection, extensive genotype and sub-genotype diversity is present, in addition to novel hepatitis C genotypes. Many of the unusual genotypes have extensive baseline resistance associated substitutions with direct acting antiviral therapy treatment outcome data, limited. We report a patient found to have a novel...
