This is great news if true. There are lots of posts on here by folks with the HCV antibody that had difficulty with the UAE
Dear All,
I am also suffered from HCV and got cured last year. Those who are interested in finding job in Arab Countries, but have Hepatitis C, there is a good news for them. United Arab Emirates Does not test people for Hepatitis C, for employment Purposes. You can confirm it by visitn Dubai Health Authority website as well as by calling them

Where are you live? What did you do after positive hcv for employment?
Actually I tried a method.Im hcv antibody positive having employment issues.my friend told me to use immunosuppresent steroids and i did they made the antibodies negative but be warned long term use can have serious side effects.it helped me may be it can help others with the same problem..
Dear in Pakistan this is a major cause of rejection from job that you have anti hcv positive even negative PCR HCV RNA. i think it is totally unfair. i am one of those persons who are effected by such a bitter test.
IN asian countries ,homeopaths are doing malpractice,,,they give you steroids,,this supreses your immune system and obviously antibodies as well,,,,this is caleed antibody white wash,,,, this is very dangerous,,,,nonreactive virus may become reactive+any other infection may occure as your body,s army or deffence system is sleeping,,,so i think its not wise to keep your life on risk just 4 sake of any job or immigration,,,

Thank you for response. Yes, it is strange and makes no sense.
Im a healthfood nutcase,but the homopathy is not for me.I did my reseach into this form of healing and it just dont make sense to me,but we all have our experiences.i did try it on my allergies to no avail.
Homeopathy is just water, that's all it is. There is no valid science behind it, just gobbeldegook. If you want to waste your money, or it makes you feel good (placibo effect), then fine. It has never passed double blind test though, because it doesn't work.
Hi Tashka—
I really don’t have good answers for your question. My understanding is that while here in the U.S. and the E.U. don’t generally practice employment discrimination, I think it does happen in some Asian countries. I made an assumption the original poster wasn’t from the U.S, and I’ve heard other’s report problems with medical employment like nursing, etc.
Yes, immigration can be problematic as well. We had several Australians in here that were prevented from entering the armed forces due to HCV + antibodies; and even though their HCV RIBA tests were negative, they apparently couldn’t serve in their army. Strange, huh?

I have no clue about immigration or homeopathy.
The decision to tell or not to tell employers about any medical condition is simple. Don't tell em. You're only required to tell em if it interferes with the daily activities on job. This could be grounds for termination if you don't tell them. If you walk up in there crippled they might suspect something's going on. May be asked for a drug screen or hair follicle test.
I disagree with your opinion on homeopathy as a scam. But, probably, this forum is not a good place to discuss this.
I know I will be OK, because I don't have hepatitis C (my husband does, and so far we do a good job hiding this fact from everyone). I just think about all people with this disease. There is a lot of stigma and misconceptions associated with hepatitis C. I take pains and struggles of every "hepper" as my own.
I don't know anything about employment tests and if it is done or not. But to immigrate yes, you are tested for HIV and hepatitis. I am an immigrant, and I was tested. I don't know if they test viral load or just antibodies.
The above post was meant for (ahsan3497)...count ur lucky star..you are saved
I dont really think if you test postive for the anti bodies you will be declined a job,does anyone have any solid facts on this statement?...i dont think so.How are potential employers goona know you are testing positive for the anti-bodies?
No worries Tash,you will be fine 'BTW....i think homeopathy medicine is a scam
