Hello,
I think you don't have possibility of getting infected with Hepatitis C but drinking dirty water.
You may have possibility of E. Coli, listeria etc. Is good thing you vomited so that all bacteria come out.
Keep yourself under observations.
Possibly you may need to take antibiotics if you develop other symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
