Abstract

In the US household population, hepatitis C virus testing coverage marginally increased between 2013 and 2017 among persons born between 1966 and 1994 (13.2% to 16.8%) and persons born between 1945 and 1965 (12.3% to 17.3%). Testing coverage remains limited and sociodemographic disparities were observed in both populations.
