Few geographical areas escape the pandemic that represents the viral infection by virus C. The percentage of evolution to chronicity are high. Between 20-30 % develop liver cirrhosis and its complications within 30 years. The foot path traveled in the healthcare practice is reviewed until reaching the era of direct action antivirals, when patients can obtain a substantial eradication of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) with a combination of drugs that raises the rates of sustained virological response (RVS). The eradication of this virus is associated with better quality of life, low morbidity and mortality.
