Hepatitis C fears prompt screening

BBC News - Hepatitis C fears prompt screening: "Hundreds of dialysis patients are to be screened for hepatitis C after two people contracted it during treatment at the same unit in Spain.
The patients, who are from Greater Glasgow and Clyde and Forth Valley, were found to be infected with the condition on return from holiday.
The dialysis unit in Spain has now been closed as a precaution.
Meanwhile, screening for tuberculosis (TB) is to be offered at a Glasgow school after a teacher became ill."
