Are We Allowed to Treat This Patient?

Hepatitis is a disease where we really want to treat it. There are people that go their whole lives and don't ever develop serosis, just like there's people that smoke cigarettes and don’t ever develop lung cancer. Heps co infected patients probably need the management of an h i v specialist as well. Ape patients with ongoing injection drug use or substance use disorder should be considered too. And then alcohol use, i really shouldn't be a contradication to going ahead to treating him.
