Hepatitis C screenings offered in May
by Duane Williams, KLCB-KTNY Radio
May 14, 2013

May is National Hepatitis Awareness month. The Lincoln County Public Health Department is offering Hepatitis C screenings free of charge to anyone who would like to be tested. The CDC suggests that those born 1945 through 1965 be screened one time due to possible exposures from medical or dental procedures that occurred before testing for the virus began in 1992. Anyone that has ever had exposure to blood or participates in high risk behaviors such as IV drug use should be screened. For more information on the TDAP clinic or Hepatitis C screenings call 406-293-4121.
