Homeopathy and Hepatitis C – the basis for a successful practice

Homeopathy and Hepatitis C –
the basis for a successful practice

Similia Vol 25 No 1 – June 2013

Author: Camilla Gold

Abstract

Figures released by the WHO in 2010, revealed that the Hepatitis C virus affects an estimated 170 – 180 million people worldwide. If these figures are compared to the estimated 34 million people living with HIV/AIDS (ibid, 2011), the question needs to be asked, how is it that HIV/AIDs has been given the dubious moniker of epidemic, whilst HCV has appeared to fall by the wayside becoming ‘the silent epidemic’? This article aims to place both diseases in their historical and cultural contexts, and in so doing, pose the question, what can we as homeopaths do to raise the profile of this devastating epidemic, and once again assert the viability of homeopathy as a legitimate and affordable treatment option in the 21st century?

Keywords: Liver, Hepatitis C, HIV/AIDS, epidemic, genus epidemicus.
