Eligibility Screening
Investigators will call eligible mothers to screen for the possibility that eligible mothers may have passed HCV on to adult children. Investigators will consent these mothers to contact the adult child(ren), as the child(ren) must be informed of the mother's HCV status, if not already known.
HCV test
Adult children will be invited to Penn or a Penn affiliate to have labwork, testing HCV antibody and HCV quant. If the quant comes back positive, investigators will also test genotype and fibrosure.
