You can check whether youâve achieved 165 Â° F by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the breast. In this case, close is not good enough. Make sure you put it back in the oven if it hasnât reached this threshold.
Currently, there is no hepatitis C vaccine for three basic reasons: HCV has different genotypes. These genotypes are basically genetic variations of a theme. They're hepatitis C viruses, but they have enough genetic difference to be classified in distinct genotypes.
My blood work had come back showing I was infected with the hepatitis C virus. Hep C is a serious, life-threatening illness that attacks the liver and can result in fatty liver, cirrhotic liver and liver cancer. One out of five people carrying the hep C virus will die of liver disease within 20 years. And a lot of people have itâat least 3 million, and perhaps as many as 7 million, in the United States alone. When I was diagnosed five years ago, there was no effective cure.
