Elimination champion

Professor John Dillon Elimination Champions

Professor John Dillon (2021)

You really need to make the steps smaller and simpler. Each step of the hepatitis C care cascade you lose people. People are too frightened, they can’t afford the bus fare, they have other commitments or can’t afford to be away from somewhere for the time.… And as that starts to be successful, we started to lift our eyes and think about how we can make this a place where there is no longer hepatitis C. Where it was just something that was a historical footnote in medical textbooks. That's a world I wanted to see and that's what drove my team and I to think about the ways we could do that.
