Hepatitis C is an infirmity that carries with it a stigma that affects patients in all areas of their lives. Misinformation about the disease itself and public misconceptions about what it is and isn't all contribute to the discrimination and mistreatment that many of our own are now experiencing from their places of employment to the offices of healthcare providers they've entrusted with their health. The links on this page are devoted to some of those stories. . If you or a family member are a victim of HCV and have had serious problems with employment, medical or other situations because of it, we'd like to read your story for possible inclusion on this site. Our intention here is not to finger point, but to merely look at those cases where patients are not being treated fairly because of having HCV, and to hopefully help others who may find themselves in a similar situations.
