England is preparing to pursue hepatitis C elimination, driven by broader screening and easier access to curative treatments. Health officials are focusing on identifying people who are unaware they carry the virus and ensuring rapid linkage to care.

Progress will depend on sustained funding, workforce capacity, and effective follow-up for those diagnosed.
