HCV Grants Allocated for HIV & HIV/HCV Research Projects

The NIH tells congress it's spending money on HCV research. NIH tells advocates it should be grateful HIV is funding HCV. Millions of dollars budgeted under the title of HCV research are awarded to determine such outcomes as, Couples-Based HIV/STI Prevention for Injecting Drug Users in Kazakhstan ($676,058), Effects of HIV & Host Genetics in China ($645,840), and Nutritional Status In HIV Hispanic Drug Abusers ($660,216). 

Many of these studies may or may not mention HCV outcomes. But... be grateful...
