Abstract
Since the Plan Estratégico para el Abordaje de la Hepatitis C (Strategic Plan for Tackling Hepatitis C - PEAHC) of the Spanish Health Service (SNS) was approved in 2015, the joint response to hepatitis C in Spain has made great progress. From 2015 to mid-2020, more than 135,000 people had access to direct-acting antiviral therapies. That same period saw advances in knowledge of the epidemiology of the active infection as well as heightened awareness and community participation in infection prevention.
