Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Elimination of Hepatitis C: Discussion
Ms Nicola Perry:
The answer the Chairman's question is no, absolutely not. It is a blood to blood transmission. There would have to be a route of transmission and a movement of blood across two people. The bodily fluids the Chairman mentioned would not carry sufficient amounts for transmission to take place.
