Abstract
Our results indicate a high prevalence of previous exposure to HCV in this population of Brazilian psychiatric patients. Most factors statistically associated with HCV were demographic or behavioral related, indicating a potential high-vulnerability profile. Screening for HCV in high-risk patients should be routine practices in these mental health services in Brazil.
