Factor 8 took to the streets of Westminster demanding action on infected blood compensation. We visited multiple government departments, delivering letters and photos of loved ones lost and we delivered letters and petitions to No 10 & No 11 Downing Street. One year ago today.

More than 50 years ago, a scandal within a scandal was being formed. "The reasons for an intense focus on research are not difficult to understand. Dr Rosemary Biggs, a central figure in haemophilia care at the time, observed in December 1970 that “the collection of 49 haemophilic patients at the Alton School makes this a unique opportunity to study the disease.” Each year a number of studies were in progress: research was conducted at Treloar’s to an extent which appears unparalleled elsewhere." @bloodinquiry Report (Vol 1 Page 17) #InfectedBlood

Thinking of all those infected with HIV as a result of the Infected Blood Scandal on this World AIDS Day. Thank you to @THTorguk for their current work to reduce and eliminate new cases of HIV.
