Hi Ragdoll, 

Thanks for the first heads up - really good news we were all awaiting!!

Glad FDA is finally saying it.

An article (about your news) arrived in my mailbox today (something I signed up for, so, I have now planted it over in that "General Discussions - GT3's and SOF/VEL trials".

Now ... all we need, is sof/vel/VOX!!! smile C.

Great news for sure!

This virus will be eradicated in our lifetime if these drugs get out there into the hands of the people that need them.

NICE, Thanks for the news Ragdoll!

One stop shopping for HCV eradication. They should just call it "Dragon-Be-Gone".
