lots of DAA drugs and new version of Interferon in phase III of clinical trial, it could be as little as 1year (or far as 5years) away from FDA approval.

a great read i must say! MDs for and against waiting for a DAA only therapy. I find it very interesting considering my case. I would definetly love to know more about this subject.
