Genetic heterogeneity is a hallmark of RNA viruses in general, and the hepatitis C virus (HCV) in particular, due to the lack of fidelity of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases [ 1 2 ] . In HCV, this genetic diversity has been organized into six major genotypes and numerous subtypes (over 80).
Further work is needed to help physicians to understand their patients' views on hepatitis C. A recent study showed that persons with hepatitis C preferred to expedite periods of poor health, implying that they may be more likely to proceed with antiviral therapy and its attendant side effects than to delay treatment [ 19 ] .
