Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She is known for narrative songs about her personal life, which have received widespread media coverage. At age 14, Swift became the youngest artist signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house and, at 15, she signed her first record deal.
Her 2006 eponymous debut album was the longest-charting album of the 2000s in the US. Its third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008.
Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", it became the US' best-selling album of 2009 and was certified diamond in the US. The album won four Grammy Awards, and Swift became the youngest Album of the Year winner.
Hepatitis C affects more than 150 million people across the world but many are unaware they have the highly infectious virus.

The illness can cause live disease, resulting in warning signs such as fatigue and difficulty concentrating. Hepatitis C is also linked to cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, musculoskeletal pain as well as mental health issues.
Around 118,000 people across the UK suffered with chronic hepatitis C in 2019, according to health figures, with the illness potentially becoming a life long health issue if left untreated.
