any recommendations for hep C protocol? this was mentioned but never addressed

David H., M.D. (@BritFltDoc) -

Agree. Hep C much more transmissible, and more likely to live outside the body on needles than HIV. Wonder if there is any new information on PEP for this. Thanks.

Erin M. -

Agreed. In my clinical population, that's I'm more likely to see than anything else, so I'm interested in hearing about Hep C.

EM PA -

I had the same question as the above commenters. Actually just went through this as a provider for another who got a needle stick from a hep c positive patient and our protocol doesn't address this at all.
