The virus can instigate both chronic and acute hepatitis, concerning the severity of the disease from a mild issue to a serious, long-term illness like cancer and liver cirrhosis. Incidents of unsafe health care, unscreened blood transfusions, unsafe injection practices, and sexual practices that lead to blood exposure all contribute to hepatitis C.

According to the World Health Organization, 58 million people are infected with chronic hepatitis C virus, with over 1.5 million new infections arising every year.  Nearly, 3.2 million adolescents and children are predicted to suffer from chronic hepatitis C infection. Thus, showcasing the increasing population that needs hepatitis C virus testing.

The Europe region and Eastern Mediterranean region witness a high rate of disease, with about 12 million people affected in each region. In the Western Pacific region and South-East Asia region, around 10 million people in each region suffer from this infection.
