stab them in the back we've helped them as much as we possibly can and that some point they have to be able to stand on her own 2 feet syria you think it's too soon . probably i just think there's a lot of hypocrisy. to doctors in the u.k. we're aware that donated blood from the united states in the 1970000 eighty's could have been infected with hiv. it was exposed when the minutes of meetings of high level doctors back then were obtained by several u.k. media outlets now we talked to jason evans the founder of the functor 8 independent hemophilia group who told us the story of his family. my father was born with hemophilia which is a manageable bleeding disorder and he like thousands of others was given this factor 8 medication he himself was infected with both hepatitis c. and. when i was 4 years old in 1903 he died of those

infections and so that's kind of been the thing that spurred me in to beginning to campaign on this issue into research into it well i 1st asked for these documents from the guardian births in n.h.s. trusts many many months ago and initially the trust refused to provide me with the document in question so i had to go to the information commissioner's office who stepped in and the i.c.a.o. did promise them to eventually release the document to me however the 1st time that the trust gave me the document i know is that 2 pages were missing from it so then had to go back to the i.c.a.o. saying you know they've they've missed out 2 pages here and i did eventually get those 2 missing pages and i was told by the trust that that was due to an admin
8:08 am
error if we choose to believe that's true and it was on those 2 pages that were originally missing that this revelation was in there and 2017 jason evans initiated a public inquiry into the case he claims key files are still missing according to the latest report from the u.k. government 30000 people were infected with hiv and hepatitis by donated blood from the us in the seventy's and eighty's well that led to hundreds of early deaths while the exact figure is still not clear. the u.k. government expressed its condolences to the victims and their families calling the case the tragedy that should have never happens it also says that all thirty's are open and ready to help with the inquiry jason evans doubts though that there will be any real assistance from the government i don't think the government the department of health of really move this forward at all in recent times the bizarre

situation we're in now is of course victims and families say this is a scandal or lawyers say it's a scandal civil servants i've spoken to say it's a scandal we've got 2 former health ministers to say it's a cover up the important point here is the department of how the opening hearings of this inquiry said there's been our best a lack of candor and at worst a cover up yet they still will not accept their legal liability despite saying that so we're in a situation where they kind of make the right noises but the action just isn't there to back what they're saying and i think it's time for that to change. families and victims have been seeking justice for decades marty has a feature length report on the case and you can watch bad blood on our web site r.t. dot com. it's too early to say the anti mosque law is not affective state hong kong's chief executive can rely on adding that it usually takes time for new

fans in china which is regrettable it wasn't long before more he himself had a change of heart i've had lots of junior since that tweet to his inconsiderate of the perspectives i have always appreciated the significant support of our chinese friends and sponsors i would hope that those who are upset will know the defending will miss understanding them was not my intention so why the 180 all of a sudden it could have something to do with a 1500000000 dollar contract signed not long ago by the n.b.a. and a major chinese tech company it's called 10 cent and it broadcasts basketball games in the hundreds of millions of chinese homes last year more people watch the n.b.a. in china than there are even people living in the united states with such a huge consumer base china hasn't only landed morry in hot water one of my key issue designers recently made a post supporting hong kong protesters on instagram the company received intense
