Hepatitis C: Staying Well

In this film, Dr. John Keppler offers a clear overview of the often misunderstood virus Hepatitis C, and discusses how those with the virus can work to stay healthy and prevent transmission to others. Visually compelling computer graphics illustrate the virus' effect on the body. Viewers come to see how and why the virus disproportionately affects substance abusers and/or those in recovery. Yet, Dr. Keppler reminds the audience that Hep C "is not a death sentence" and it can actually be a positive - a motivating factor to stay in recovery. A bonus question and answer segment at the end rounds out the presentation with spontaneous answers to important and personal questions. A perfect educational component for health, correctional, and treatment programs.
