Just posted on the Hepatitis Australia website:

Which is asking for feedback from patients but also includes mention that Epclusa is under consideration.

It took nearly a year for the current drugs to go from “under consideration” to be available on PBS.

I have a mate who did clinical trial for what is now known as Epclusa well over a year ago. He was cured.

Good to see more options becoming available, especially more effective and cross genotype ones.
