Competing Interests
To the best of our knowledge, no conflict of interest, financial or other, exists; except for Dr. Fishbein who has recently served as an Advisor for Gilead regarding HCV Elimination. We have included acknowledgements after the discussion. Dr. Fishbein has been funded by Gilead Sciences FOCUS Partnership for her research and as an Advisor to Gilead on HCV Elimination. This does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
