World Hepatitis Day Art Contest
The BC Centre for Excellence (BC-CfE) is excited to launch an art contest to mark World Hepatitis Day on July 28th 2017. With this contest we hope to raise awareness about hepatitis C virus (HCV).
In Canada, it is estimated that 300,000 people are living with HCV with approximately 80,000 of those living in BC. HCV is passed on when the blood from someone who has HCV gets into the bloodstream of another person. This can happen with high risk sexual practices; sharing injection equipment or getting a tattoo or piercing with unsterilized equipment.
