Download Britain’s infected blood scandal, my quest for the truth

In the early 1980s Jason Evans' father was given a blood product called Factor 8 to treat his haemophilia, which infected him with HIV.

Jason's father died when he was just four, and he spent most of his life campaigning for the truth about what happened.
