In this paper, we explore the bifurcation, chaos, and local stability of a discrete Hepatitis C virus infection model. More precisely, we studied the local stability at fixed points of a discrete Hepatitis C virus model. We proved that at a partial infection fixed point, the discrete HCV model undergoes Neimark-Sacker bifurcation, but no other local bifurcation exists at this fixed point. Moreover, it was also proved that period-doubling bifurcation does not occur at liver-free, disease-free, and total infection fixed points. Furthermore, we also examined chaos control in the understudied discrete HCV model. Finally, obtained theoretical results were confirmed numerically.
