huge article on Hep C

Front page/ 4 pages long article on Hep C in our local free newspaper and it started out with someone who contracted HCV from a blood transfusion.  I felt it was very informative and well done.  
The reason NM has such a huge rate of hep c people is because of the NM prisons, they just wont provide treatment until your practically dead
there were comments from our wonderful clinic here and the optimism that if treated properly hep c can be wiped out in 10 years.
The paper is call the Santa Fe Reporter

There are a group of medical people here that are working very hard at addressing the Hep C situation, they are supportive and dedicated.
They really want to see it eradicated.
