Prevention of Hepatitis C

There's no vaccination to protect people from hepatitis C.

Those most at risk of contracting the infection are injecting-drug users, so you should never share any injecting equipment such as needles, syringes, etc. Also you should not share razors, toothbrushes or anything else that may possibly be contaminated with blood.
