Hepatitis C
Hepatitis C - How to prevent?
HCV positive carriers should avoid donating blood, tissue, organs or semen.
Safer sexual practices should be strongly encouraged in persons with multiple sexual partners eg. by using latex condoms.
Avoid sharing razors and toothbrushes with members of the household who are HCV carriers.
Intravenous drug users should not share needles/syringes.
Pregnancy is not contraindicated in HCV carriers. However the child should be tested for antibodies against HCV at one year of age.
