1. Well, it didn't work at all for my wife, who is decended from German Jews.

She had an extended course of interferon - an extra 6 months - felt truly awful through the entire thing. It cost many thousands of dollars, was not effective in lowering her viral count, and her Docs told us she had possibly 5 years to live. That was in 1999.

Her liver profile numbers are in the normal zone now, and she has been taken off the transplant list, but it had nothing to do with interferon, which is nothing but very overpriced shit, IMO.
