Jackie Johnson was diagnosed with hepatitis C in 2010. But in 2015, he took advantage of the latest hep C treatments and was soon cured.

A recent study found that transplanting such kidneys and then treating the recipient for hep C worked well.

A recent study found that transplanting such kidneys and then treating the recipient for hep C worked well.

That’s according to a recent computer model that predicted that transplanting such kidneys first and treating the virus later is efficient.

For people with HCV who are on the liver transplant list because of severe liver damage, curing the virus may allow them to leave the list.

In a small study, those with HCV who received HCV-infected kidneys who were then treated with Zepatier (grazoprevir/elbasvir) all did well.
