Interview with EACS Vice President on World Hepatitis Day
"The WHO has issued targets for HBV and HCV testing, prevention, and treatment that we should all strive to achieve to eliminate chronic viral hepatitis as a threat to global health by 2030. A lot of countries are on target to achieve these goals; however, the Sars-CoV-2 pandemic will harm many of these programmes. As we come through global control of COVID-19, we mustn’t take our eye off the many gains that we have made in combating HIV, tuberculosis (TB) and viral hepatitis."

Best practices in the management of women living with HIV
18 & 22 July 2020
Recently, the United Conference of Hepatogastroenterology and Infectious Diseases (UCHID) and Kasr Al-Aini HIV and Viral Hepatitis Fighting Group have decided to go virtual for their medical education plans in 2020. The first topic "Women Living with HIV" was initially planned as one face-to-face scientific day earlier in March but based on the current situation it will be held as two separate virtual meetings on Saturday 18 & Wednesday 22 July 2020. The meetings will discuss recent medical recommendations for women living with HIV in limited-resources settings, social & economic challenges that women face, highlights from CROI & AIDS 2020, and also recent guidance for supporting women in the time of COVID-19 pandemic. On 22 July at 8 pm CEST, EACS-WAVE vice-chair, Dr Yvonne Gilleece, will join the event as a speaker, so be sure to not miss that session!

Interview with Dr. Cristiana Oprea on the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking
"In my opinion, there is still an urgent need to implement on a larger scale efficient and appropriate programmes to lower HIV and HCV spread among PWIDs. Integrated, collaborative, multidisciplinary approaches to healthcare for PWIDs combined with intensive outreach initiatives would be essential".
