England is on track to eliminate hepatitis C, becoming one of the first countries globally to do so, and potentially achieving the World Health Organization’s 2030 goal four years early.

The WHO established its elimination benchmark in 2016, requiring that 80 percent of identified cases be treated by the end of the decade. Health officials announced today that England is nearing this target. No right-leaning sources reported on this story; coverage comes from left and center outlets.
