I’m pretty sure they already have one. Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson. Pretty sure it’s out of reach for most common folk. Don’t quote me but I heard it’s around $100k for the treatment.

Treatment and vaccine are different

Vaccine is before infection Treatment is after

Most insurance covers the treatment and the companies offer good copay assistance and prescription assistance programs for the uninsured. I work at a Hep C clinic and we are able to get most patients cured for free

HEP C has been curable for a while now.

Harvoni has a 99% success rate

Edit: not a vaccine
