dc.description.abstract	Introduction: Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) has become the global “epidemic” with an estimated of 2.5% (177.5 million) people currently infected worldwide. In Ethiopia the pooled prevalence estimated is 2%. HCV infection transmission is associated with Percutaneous (dirty needles, blood transfusions, & hemodialysis, Intranasal cocaine Non-commercial tattooing & body piercing, via contaminated multi-use vials & inadequately sterilized multi-use instruments & syringes.), and Non-percutaneous (sexual). At the same time diabetes is also rapidly emerging as a global health care problem that threatens to reach pandemic levels by 2030.	en_US

dc.subject	The study confirmed a lower rate of HCV in Type II DM patients in TGSH than previous study in Ethiopia. Which show that hcv infection may be a possible risk factor for type 2DM,but not statistically significant .This finding didn’t not allow to recommend regular screening for HCV infection in type 2 diabetics	en_US
