A Community-based Intervention Among Active Drug Users in Montpellier

All patients will have HCV screening using rapid tests. HIV and HBV testing will also be conducted and patients will be appropriately referred to appropriate health services.

HCV-RNA assay (GeneXpert, Cepheid) will be performed for all participants with positive HCV serology to determine if patients have chronic hepatitis C (defined by HCV-RNA\>10 UI/mL). In addition a measure of the liver stiffness will be performed.

Direct-Acting Antiviral drugs will be prescribed for 8 or 12 weeks according to liver assessment.
