Within the Dutch Acute HCV in HIV Study a surveillance system was initiated to estimate the incidence of hepatitis C virus infections in 2014. Following the Dutch guidelines, all HIV-positive men having sex with men (MSM) in 19 participating centers were screened. 99 acute HCV infections were reported, which resulted in a mean incidence of 11 per 1000 patient-years of follow-up. Unfortunately, the HCV epidemic among Dutch HIV-positive MSM is not coming to a halt.
