Brie Williams Quoted in Infectious Disease News

Brie Williams, MD, MS was quoted in the November issue of Infectious Disease News about addressing HCV in the U.S. prison population. “We have an opportunity — and a clear obligation — to identify and treat HCV in prisons. There is no other rational way to combat this epidemic. At a fundamental level, prison health is public health. What happens — or does not happen — inside prisons and jails to improve the health of millions of Americans has a direct impact on the overall health of our communities.”  A web version of the article can be read here:  https://www.healio.com/infectious-disease/hepatitis-c/news/print/infectious-disease-news/%7B4564970f-7c25-4a3f-8509-26d28b89ebce%7D/hcv-prevalent-among-us-inmates-most-are-not-getting-the-cure
