Hazel Heal on the cure for Hepatitis C - a podcast by Steven Moe

The truth about Hepatitis - what do you know?  In this interview Hazel takes us on a journey to understand her life and experience as someone who has been impacted by Hepatitis C but has found the cure which literally saved her life.  There is a lot of misinformation on this topic out there so I enjoyed hearing first hand from someone about this topic.  We also dive back into her early years to learn about her influences and what has shaped her.  We also talk about the project to test the entire population of Niue and the role of the Edmund Hillary Fellowship in fundraising for that.
