Thing is that actually their aren't any cures for viral infections. Sure we can slow/ stop viral reproduction with medication, but it doesn't kill the pathogen, as for example antibiotics do with bacteria.

Is happititus c viral stays in body after treatment?

Hepatitis C is caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV), which can remain in the body long-term and lead to chronic infection. However, with effective antiviral treatment, many individuals can achieve a sustained virologic response (SVR), meaning the virus is undetectable in the blood and effectively cured. While the virus can clear from the body after successful treatment, it is important to note that individuals can still be reinfected if exposed to the virus again. Regular follow-up and monitoring are recommended post-treatment.

I have a Hepatitis B Virus can I go to USA for an Immigrant?

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (ww w.ultimatelifeclinic.c om) in March, 2020. Their treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
