welcome to everyone to this special. friend. troubles here for the burial. we same say only time we may chose as a community to fuel. is just happens all the time and we always sigh we must stop meeting like this most. of them have to.

take the position you'll raise taxes repeat after me i swear by almighty god i swear by almighty god the evidence i should give evidence i shall give the faith the truth shall be the truth a whole tree the whole truth and nothing about nothing but the truth if you stay gone for. john were. the 1st to write. i was diagnosed very late at the age of 3 years old spent a lot of time in hospital the doctors didn't know what was wrong with my neck from time to stand while i was getting knowledge swellings and bruises all over my body . richard has a form of hemophilia a rare and severe inherited disorder the ability to. the slightest injury an internal bleed or even just a bruise could cause irreparable damage. every

day richard inject himself with the blood clotting agent factor 8 these days it's sterile and safe but in the mid seventy's and early eighty's a treatment like this infected about 5000 people in the u.k. with either hepatitis c. or even both richard was a month and he had to undergo a series of treatments. are very difficult cross. wired for turning more side effects mood swings and stretching. after take. drugs.

in the 1970 s. a new drug called factor 8 was released to using human blood it promised a much easier life for him a failure they no longer needed to go to hospital and could self administered the treatment by injection at any time or convenient place. but it had one fatal flaw or about which patients knew nothing until too late. one dose of your treatment might contain the donation of 405-0000 people. a lot of products in the u.k. came from america and one of the things we now know is that the people giving those donations were. people who maybe were in prison or drug. and i encouraged to give that. to provide.

this is a result that you were 3 positive yes and you weren't. it's not where you told that you were being not. when both include king my aunt who was quite rigid. because the dress don't move and be brutes and uncle supports have saved me a few times because sometimes you're wall and you roll your own call and if i didn't have these on i would have a very bad bleed. from one girl's. like other human filly x. martin has problems with joints mainly his knees and elbows caused by internal bleeding. and was diagnosed within a full year about the age of 6 months old. growing gawp with him earlier back then

for a parent it was a nightmare children there always running falling over buying in themselves and i would have all kinds of internal bleeds and damage to my joints. martin was under constant medical care 1st at birmingham children's hospital interview age of 17 he was sent to an adult facility. i remember being in the white american and my name is called out now the doctor doesn't even introduce himself his 1st words were hello i see you're a child people i didn't understand the significance of what he was saying because i was a healthy teenager a my words to him were all well that's why the then goes on to say that your life for the next 2 years and then i said what do you mean by that. and he goes you got

2 years to live. that's when it hit me. so we rode back to birmingham and got a letter that says on it that i was tested in 1900. without my knowledge i was found to be h. on the positive but it also says that i found an old sample of my blood from a man tonight and i was positive then. but i could have been working on why i could have been sleeping with somebody and it would have more to for me if i have infected a girl what gives them doctors the wrong to play god. that i'm risk all the peoples laws why didn't they tell me. in 1981 i knew had previously unheard of disease was discovered in the united states acquired immune deficiency syndrome aids. in january

982 with the 1st hemophiliacs contracted aids in the us 9 more cases have been recorded by the end of the year 8 of which were terminal. despite this great britain continue to import american factories. are you proud of your all the new jump. up and lots of you call him a for. ever jerry jerry j.j. sure. my dad lived with hemophilia. really did all one thing aim affiliates again is way out of the time it was kind of an odd thing the song people. say he was there carpenter using these huge source and swinging. wood around the shop the

things. that stick let me go i was. crazy for. ameri thank those videos because it's the evidence why memory doesn't have. it's it was a father to me that he raised me and was doing everything a father should do. towards the late seventy's he sees concentrates because that was for those who just saw him and everyone else see use. main $1803.00 so the 1st reported case of the british hemophiliac contracting the disease. appeared in the press claiming that fact it was a safe. in november of 84 he raised concerns about the products with he stopped

and they told him this is just sensationalism it's fine you know to worry they convinced him to carry on using facts concentrate and then it was only shortly after that the his 1st choice v. tests came back as opposed to. things just very difficult strain on their relationship with my mom you know they'd only got married and nothing their life went from being one of planning for the future to planning for the end. he took to new statements about one of the worst things being the feeling of sticking that. with relation to. it's in the early days christian people don't get to see where you are lower. when we found out that he was positive felt such fear never felt little it's

not the fear of what he might suffer it's it's social it's everything it's children it's housing it's your career is everything is gone it was something to be ashamed of even though we did nothing wrong he did nothing wrong i bring a prominent locally and then one night i walked into a pole to play mama and the landlord just pointed out me and said you get out the pool tame i've been playing with but i also don't they're not one of them thought to be for me i'll help sick. and i thought dead. this was a classic case of. well informed. it

doesn't take away the fact that it made me feel a lot rubbish. my dad lost his job among got sidetracked her job they received hate mail phone calls making fun of. the stigma is incredible it's this whole thing though if you had a you a gay or you a drug user or some kind of what they saw to be an in desirable person. by 9190 nights a he'd become wario. he had progressed to a it's only opportunistic infections using off way slowly going through a horrible death. and. by the end of my 3. news news that.

jason evans founded the independent campaign group factor 8 its members of the immediate relatives of him affiliates who died because of contaminated blood products his organization provides them with legal help. i really only had one goal when i got involved in campaigning on this subject i wanted it on the official record that what happened could and should have been avoided i think after that point maybe there's room for that as support for people counseling and compensation and all these other things but i think from apes. so they want it on the record that there is liability and then i'll be satisfied.

her. i. americans are divided not by its all white music you shouldn't design decisions are challenged ideologies become exclusionary and intolerant the supreme court does now in the realm of charts and politics and worst of all political opponents or. is there a way out of this downward spiral. we

can see which it's perhaps most clearly documented date stamp 10th of september 976 so very soon after you would have been starting it should all of them and we can see the words have to talk to script stick with the existence of a biscuit have it's like something your parents tell. we cash cow and that is dari alfonzo mongery has died. he's died and. he's died on lost one of the page service cherish unpaid change guard service or. 'd at 11 years of age richard went to trial lawyers college a special boarding school for children with disabilities. there's an n.h.s.

health center on the campus students could receive the medical care they needed and attend classes all in the same place. it's also the signs of the greatest concentration of contaminated blood cases that the u.k. has ever seen. 'd what it. is that you receive significant quantities of fats or a sort of prophylactic they. are crazy about. aren't too real target joints nose mild left me me of our rights. our current system why that would give me consecutive doses day after day. great britain will be self-sufficient in blood products and will guarantee their purity. it was the government's promise in the 1970s. when she came in that pledge in the name went away and they found

a way around the. importing this particular product. all these issues were very often at meetings of 1015 people but they were all held in secret no one was allowed to publish the the minutes of the meetings. the main beneficiaries of that secrecy were pharmaceutical companies. these companies had a huge financial motivation to sow these problems today. the fact concentrate market is a 1000000000 dollar industry in order for me to say our product is safe for the next companies they needed a trial date that showed we've used this product and it's not infectious and in this country at least the doctor is. often as consultants to the pharmaceutical home as there are numerous documents showing that doctors in oxford doctors in

cardiff work keen to test facts or a concentrates infectivity on their patients to all hemophilia since directors. initial production batches may have been tested for infectivity by injecting them into chimpanzees it is unlikely that the manufacturers will be able to guarantee this form of quality control for all future batches it is therefore very important find out why studies in human beings to what extent the infectivity of the various concentrates has been reduced. the reason they used humans instead of chimpanzees was one because chimpanzees were expensive and essentially patients were free when they don't know their partner experiment we tried to speak to the pharmaceutical companies that produced factory took the time over the last 50 years they have changed names and ownership several times and none wanted to talk about the contaminated blood issue now. what we know now is that the trolls are

also conducting tests regularly and keeping records of liver function tests which made you think ok so what are they actually looking for figuring in a safe product or if you want to monitoring how you live. your pretend times or if you take a sales are you cd for camera with looking at these things. out of the 8. 9 hemophiliacs who went to train those college 72 died. and people are still dying. or from liver related problems to have a charge say. i actually feel guilty i'm still here i asked myself the question why am i still alive when you know 70 percent of aim for that boy use

the rats college. i've had and i don't care and i'm always question yourself why me i why my soon i being allowed to live when so many have and. the official claim was that the new medicines were safe the most emphatic statement to that effect was from kenneth clark health secretary under margaret thatcher's government. i think someone that really has a lot to answer for as a minister is. the well known kenneth clarke actually stood up for an argument and said there is no conclusive proof. is transmitted through blood products he really needs to answer for. type of misinformation and this was the reply we received from kenneth clocks office krista clock has chosen to decline this request

and from the u.k. department of health the infected blood inquiry is a cabinet of its leaders and therefore they will be the ones best placed to answer your questions beyond that initial acknowledgement the cabinet office has not responded to our request. and all we could find on the official u.k. national health service website was a report mentioning that victims are entitled to apply for compensation. 2019 and for the 1st time the u.k. government agreed to hear what the victims had to say a public inquiry was opened in london and jason evans group factory is taking part in it is finally happening it's been a long road and this is a this train journey is one that i say him countless times over the last 34 years.

even before jason was born his father was aware of the deadly disease. in spite of the risk of causing on the contamination his baby was born. after i think about how would i have dealt with what my dad went. next year i'll be the same age my dad was when he died. i think about if i was to die that next year that age that would have been really a very short life. that weighs heavily on my mind. in 1918 tina and. yes. the accident shall we say. knew pretty soon after and she went to see her

doctor. where we were advised really in no uncertain terms. to look at. it was all in those few months all mixed up together and at the time we were still reeling from the shock and the implications of dealing with the diagnosis i could have been positive in which case what we you know we were bringing approach child at that time to be an orphan if you to come into the world we didn't know how long we have or the child could have been positive as well as me in which case was it morally right to give birth to a child that i be you know suffered terribly i couldn't walk away from a man who are supposed to love just when he needed me in worlds. and once we found out that i was ok afterwards. he.

realized that if i was going to be a mother it wouldn't be with richard and i just say with richard he said you're a perfect stream really loving and supportive wife yes she's sure he's in chile. but it's. a source of great sadness to you base the speed that you have to have children. anything you. have to say at the time it seemed easy i didn't feel as if we had any choice sally lacey a thing. but. martin

baird was also thinking of starting a family his girlfriend was a nurse at the hospital where he received his treatment. i've got the dial m. of hemophilia boston out on the don lemon or of a child of a not just infecting her but possibly possibly on to children as well so took the decision after about a year to split tilt so that hopefully she could go off and have a family of our own and thankfully she did and we're still friends on facebook so you know and she seems happy which is good. this is a very very apt rebate and that such a. very loyal dogs rottweilers are very protective as wild.

animals are one of the greatest comfort she can ever offer. because you can have the lousiest day in the world when you walk in that house and the dogs are pleased to see you. dogs know when you're in i mean i know when you're in trouble and. it's soothing. to attempts were made over 40 years to investigate the causes of this medical disaster in the u.k. but so far no one has been held accountable. the current inquiry is goal is to

gather evidence the final decision about how to proceed after that will wrist with the government. i have very doubt that what happened was criminal i think the real question is to what degree was it credible i mean nothing bad better we're talking about some form of criminal negligence and perhaps corporate manslaughter perhaps. and i think the inquiry can help direct in some way where where those lines made. their criminal prosecutions have been brought in other countries and they have been successful particularly in france whether they will be brought in this country i suspect not the reason they won't bring them though the crown prosecution service won't be directed to bring those prosecutions it's because it's widely accepted that they would be successful and the only way they can avoid a successful prosecution is to avoid bringing it up.

the public inquiry is expected to continue for at least 2 to 3 years too late for the victims who have already died and to long for those still fighting for their lives every day morning. first witnesses. he was so bright. i was told about a year to live it was a hard time it's so frightfully experience it wasn't a life. really treasure exams anymore because we did in a few years. i don't think i would. check him out the else to any. town school and sit down in the house hard enough is no way should have to do that we just wanted to be with him.

and i believe now is the time to justice. and all we ask for is recognition of our rights a meaningful recompense for the largest we have so cruelly stolen from those. 50.

time after time corporations repeat the same mantra sustainability it's very important to accelerate the transition to sustainable transport sustainability. a more equitable and sustainable world. they claim their production is completely harmless. it. companies want us to feel good about buying their products while the damage is being done far away this is something this must be undone even and i mean look. in unison we didn't. understand that with so when. americans are divided and not divided all the white men use it you shouldn't resign citizens our challenge ideologies become exclusionary engine color the supreme court does not look hard. and worst of all litigate colons. is there

a way out of this downward spiral. russia is ready to provide the un with top notch assistance free of charge then let him approach it off as united nations stuff to try a brand new russian covert vaccine job for 3 thing that the countries already received requests from the un colleagues. 3rd stage of vaccine trials here in russia or in which our correspondent took part. this morning i got a call from the chronic pain i am an ideal candidate ok i'm ready. for the news this morning my new mccrone demands russia respect redline.
