it was recognized that health resources are generally limited&#46; Hence decisions had to be made early whether one would use elimination or eradication programs&#46; The costs and benefits of global eradication programmes had to be measured with their direct effects on morbidity and mortality and eventually on the health care system&#46; The participants of the Dahlem Workshop also recognized that success depended strongly on the level of societal and political commitment&#44; with a key role for the World Health Assembly&#46;</p><p id="p0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In 2016&#44; twenty-seven years after the hepatitis C virus &#40;HCV&#41; was discovered&#44; 194 member countries of the World Health Organization &#40;WHO&#41; adopted the first global health sector strategy on viral hepatitis to halt transmission of viral hepatitis and provide everyone living with viral hepatitis access to safe&#44; affordable&#44; and effective care and treatment&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> WHO published its advocacy brief for combating viral hepatitis to reach elimination by the year 2030&#46;

all four leading professional organizations in liver disease endorsed elimination of viral hepatitis urging governments&#44; healthcare organizations and non-governmental organizations to implement action plans to move this process forward&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a></p><elsevierMultimedia ident="t0015"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="p0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In this issue of the <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Annals of Hepatology</span>&#44; Francheville&#44; <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">et al</span>&#46; describe their experience from the first 12 months of multi-phase hepatitis C elimination strategy within the geographic confines of Prince Edward Island &#40;PEI&#41;&#44; the smallest of Canadian provinces&#46; They demonstrate encouraging results for improved access to treatment&#44; enhanced engagement by health care providers&#44; and increased rates of cure for patients living with chronic hepatitis C genotype-1&#46;</p><p id="p0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Prince Edward Island population is approximately 146&#44;000&#46; It is estimated there are 629 individuals infected with HCV on the Island&#46; The current study reports the initial 242 referrals &#40;comprising 38&#37; of all HCV cases living in PEI&#41;&#44; 123 patients &#40;50&#37; of referred&#41; seen for intake assessments&#44; and 93 &#40;76&#37; of assessed&#41; started on direct-acting antiviral &#40;DAA&#41; therapy based on medical need&#46; All of this occurred in the first year of the Program&#46; Furthermore&#44; sustained viral response was documented in more than 95&#37; of subjects who completed treatment with DAAs&#46;</p><p id="p0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The availability of DAAs for HCV provides opportunities to eliminate HCV but the latter also requires scaling-up of treatment with considerable cost&#46; Bringing local health care providers&#44; government&#44; industry&#44; and HCV community groups together created a province-wide model of care&#46; This collaboration might have been the most important aspect of the Program&#46; In spite high prices&#44; PEI announced the decision to provide treatment for all persons infected with HCV&#46; As a result of a collaborative procurement strategy between Government and industry&#44; treatment regime with DAAs was provided to all eligible patients &#8211; a feat previously thought impossible&#46; Any public health expert in infectious disease eradication or elimination will emphasize the need for societal and political commitment&#46; The political commitment for elimination strategy goes hand-in-hand with appropriate advocacy&#46; This article provides proof-of-principle for starting elimination program for HCV within a specific geographic area&#46; The real success of the Program will be clearer with long-term monitoring&#46;</p><p id="p0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">As different jurisdictions start their individual HCV elimination strategies&#44; new post-elimination challenges will arise&#46; If PEI became HCV-negative jurisdiction&#44; how would they enforce zero incidence for HCV&#63; Will they require point-of-care testing at entry points to the Island&#63; Will they be able to identify each asymptomatic carrier of HCV who may potentially transmit the virus and re-introduce HCV to the Island&#63; Would there be viable vaccination programs for people who inject drugs&#63; Or will the post-elimination strategy depend on post-exposure prophylaxis protocol for those potentially exposed to HCV&#63; Even if HCV is eliminated from any jurisdiction&#44; there will be global demand for further research into these questions and other medical or public health challenges&#46;</p><p id="p0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Elimination programs for HCV are laudable&#44; but carry awesome responsibility&#46; Unlike eradication programs&#44; elimination programs can handle some failure&#46; Careful and deliberate evaluation of every program is a prerequisite to navigate the best strategies for elimination of HCV - the ultimate goal of public health&#46;
