End Hep C SD EndHepCSD is a public-private partnership to eliminate hepatitis C by 2030. To get involved, visit www.endhepcsd.org for meeting information.

End Hep C SD is the public campaign name for the Eliminate Hepatitis C San Diego County Initiative. We work to advance the health and dignity of people living with and impacted by hepatitis C, and intersecting epidemics, by advocating for the enhancement of governmental, private, and public health care systems through capacity building and a commitment to social justice. This initiative is currently funded by the County of San Diego, Health and Human Services Agency. Additional funding is provided by unrestricted educational grants/support to the Liver Coalition of San Diego — the convening agency —by AbbVie, Inc. and Gilead Sciences.

Hepatitis C elimination depends on the people who are closest to the community — and that includes our drug and alcohol treatment programs. They meet people where they are, understand the realities of injection drug use, and know how to support clients navigating housing instability, stigma, trauma, and recovery.

By hosting hepatitis C testing events, programs like this show what whole‑person care really looks like. They’re uniquely positioned to identify HCV early, link clients to treatment, and walk alongside them through the journey. This is how we eliminate hepatitis C: by partnering with providers who see the whole human, not just the diagnosis.

Liver-wasting disease, called a ‘silent epidemic’ by the CDC, is more prevalent among current and former intravenous drug users.

Thank you, Dr. Schwarz, for your work to bring forward the burden estimate for children affected by hepatitis C in San Diego County. The initial research used to determine the San Diego County HCV burden, published "The estimated hepatitis C seroprevalence and key population sizes in San Diego in 2018," did not include children in its estimate that approximately 55,354 adults aged 18 and older were HCV‑seropositive in San Diego County (https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0251635).

We recently commissioned a poll finding that a large majority of Californians want large scale health insurance reform, including holding conglomerates accountable for the role they play in rising costs, especially through vertical integration. The spillover effects on the program are front and center as well, with 91% of voters agreeing the program needs accountability and transparency.

No Health Without Liver Health

Liver cancer is one of the fastest‑growing cancers in the nation — but most cases are preventable. Our work at the Liver Coalition of San Diego intersects every day with the mission of SDCountyHHSA’s Public Health Services, and together we focus on four actions that make a real difference:

- Maintain a healthy weight
- Avoid alcohol
- Get vaccinated for hepatitis B
- Get tested — and treated if positive — for hepatitis C

As we join the American Public Health Association to recognize this month, we are proud to be one of the many healthcare organizations partnering with the County to advance prevention, early detection, and access to care so every community has the chance to be healthier. Together, we work with decision‑makers to put health at the center of all policymaking, knowing that smart local policies save lives.

Appreciation to Dr. Sayone Thihalolipavan, Chief Public Health Officer for San Diego County, for his leadership and commitment to building a healthier region.
