Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains a major global public health concern due to the absence of an effective vaccine and its diversity, which complicate diagnosis, genotyping, and clinical management despite the widespread use of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs). In regions where multiple HCV genotypes co-circulate, inter-genotypic recombination represents an additional challenge for accurate classification and...
