TL;DR: The global estimate of viraemic HCV infections is lower than previous estimates, largely due to more recent prevalence estimates in Africa, and increased mortality due to liver-related causes and an ageing population may have contributed to a reduction in infections.

TL;DR: The EASL CPGs on the management of HCV infection will be updated on a regular basis upon approval of additional novel therapies, and will apply to therapies that are approved at the time of their publication.
