people with chronic hepatitis C who progress to end stage hepatic failure. What are the risk factors?

based on UW it says longer duration of infection, acquiring infection after age 40.

But I think these two are opposite, because younger age of acquisition means longer duration. But in the choices both male and female with the acquisition at 18 years old are not considered high risk in comparison to 40 years old male.....any idea, please?
