An infected blood scandal in Britain was no accident but the fault of doctors and a succession of governments that led to 3,000 deaths and thousands more contracting hepatitis or HIV, a public inquiry found on Monday.
\nInquiry chair Brian Langstaff said more than 30,000 people received infected blood and blood products in the 1970s and 1980s from Britain\u2019s state-funded National Health Service, destroying lives, dreams and families.
\nThe government hid the truth to \u201csave face and to save expense\u201d, he said, adding that the cover-up was \u201cmore subtle, more pervasive and more chilling in its implications\u201d than any orchestrated conspiracy plot.
\nPrime Minister Rishi Sunak is expected to apologise on behalf of the state when he addresses the House of Commons later on Monday. Langstaff, a former High Court judge, received a standing ovation by campaigners as he delivered his findings.
\nThe families of victims and survivors had sought justice for years and Langstaff, who led a near 6-year inquiry, said the scale of what happened was both horrifying and astonishing.
\nIn some cases, blood products made from donations from U.S. prisoners or other high-risk groups were used on children, infecting them with HIV or hepatitis C, long after the risks were known.
\nOther victims were used in medical trials without their knowledge or consent. Those who contracted HIV were often shunned by their communities afterwards.
\n\u201cThis disaster was not an accident,\u201d Langstaff said. \u201cThe infections happened because those in authority \u2013 doctors, the blood services and successive governments \u2013 did not put patient safety first.\u201d
\nHe said proper compensation must now be paid.
\nThe use of infected blood has resulted in thousands of victims in the United States, France, Canada and other countries.
\nThe British government, which in 2015 said it was \u201csomething that never should have happened\u201d, agreed in 2022 to make an interim payment of 100,000 pounds ($126,990) to those affected.
\nClive Smith, chair of the Haemophilia Society, said the scandal had rocked trust in the medical establishment. \u201c(It) really challenges the trust that we put in people to look after us, to do their best and to protect us,\u201d he told reporters.
\nHIGH RISK SUPPLIES<\/strong>
\nThe infected blood and blood products, some of which were imported from the United States, were used for transfusions, which were not always clinically needed, and as treatments for bleeding disorders like haemophilia.
\nHaemophiliacs received Factor 8 concentrates which carried a paticularly high risk of infection.
\nSome of the concentrates were infected with HIV in the 1980s, the inquiry said, but authorities failed to switch to safer alternatives, and they decided in July 1983, a year after risks were apparent, not to suspend their importation.
\nSystemic failures resulted in between 80 and 100 people becoming infected with HIV by transfusion, the inquiry found, and about 26,800 were infected with Hepatitis C, often from receiving blood after childbirth or an operation.
\nBoth groups were failed by doctors\u2019 complacency about Hepatitis C and their slowness to respond to the risks of AIDS, it said, compounded by an absence of meaningful apology or redress.
\n\u201cIt will be astonishing to anyone who reads this report that these events could have happened in the UK,\u201d Langstaff said.
\nThe British inquiry, which started in 2018, does not have the power to recommend prosecutions.
\nIn France, former health minister Edmond Herve was convicted in 1999 for his role in the scandal, but he received no punishment. Michel Garretta, the director of France\u2019s national blood centre, received a four-year sentence.
