Living with Hep C in the family

Does anyone have experience of being a parent of a child diagnosed with Hep C?

I am wondering how you deal with playdates and going to school. Do you let people caring for your child know that they need to take precautions when dealing with an open cut?

I am concerned that this is going to stigmatise DD fairly quickly. I know schools should keep stuff private but with teacher, TAs, dinnerladies, helper parents etc, surely stuff leaks onto the playground?

Thank you for any advice. Sorry if my (so far limited) knowledge about the condition has been wrong.
