Hepatitis C is a bloodborne virus that can persist for years without producing noticeable symptoms. The Hepatitis C RNA test detects the virus's genetic material directly, which allows it to identify an active infection earlier than antibody-based screening.

About Hepatitis C RNA Test in Fajardo

The Hepatitis C RNA test is a molecular assay that looks for viral RNA in a blood sample.

RNA, or ribonucleic acid, carries the genetic instructions the virus needs to replicate. When HCV RNA is present in the bloodstream, it indicates that the virus is actively reproducing rather than simply leaving a record of past exposure.

Because the test targets the virus itself, it can return a positive result during the window before the body has produced detectable antibodies. This makes it useful both for early detection and for confirming whether an infection is ongoing.

Hepatitis C spreads primarily through contact with infected blood. Sharing needles, needlestick injuries, and, less commonly, certain medical or personal-care practices that involve blood exposure are among the routes of transmission.
