BRITAIN-HEALTH-BLOOD-INQUIRY

A person carrying a bag reading "Infected Blood Dying for Justice" stands outside Westminster, in central London, on May 20, 2024 during the Infected Blood Inquiry final report. A decades-long UK scandal in which thousands of people died after being treated with infected blood was covered up and largely could have been avoided, according to a bombshell report published on May 20, 2024. More than 30,000 people were infected with viruses such as HIV and hepatitis after being given contaminated blood in Britain between the 1970s and early 1990s, the Infected Blood Inquiry concluded.
