Hepatitis C and HIV co-infection

This special presentation contains excerpts from interviews conducted at JOY’s Studios. You will hear from experts in the field of HIV and HEP C… physicians, medical researchers, educators and everyday people who have experienced hep C. Their stories are compelling. In providing this podcast, we hope it helps you to responsibly peruse a healthy and fulfilling sex life.

Hep C is a blood born virus that until now, had not been considered as a sexually transmissible disease by many sexual health organisations. Until now, the majority of people contracting hep c had done so by not following safe injecting protocols when taking drugs.

With 13% of the HIV+ population also being co-infected with Hepatitis C, the recent additional 39 cases in Victoria has universally shocked the sexual health sector.

This show, Episode #102 originally aired in August, 2011
