HCV infection and its chronic sequelae is a public health threat of international concern. Major advances in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) led the 69th World Health Assembly (2016) to approve the Global Health Sector Strategy (GHSS) to eliminate hepatitis C (and B) infections by 2030. To achieve this goal, assessment and monitoring of global, regional, and national HCV burden during the years is a prerequisite.
