Cryoprecipitate treatment for people with bleeding disorders. They werent asked. Some clinicians explained how they would have adapted their Treatment Practices if fewer American Products had been available and this is not the benefit of hindsight. On either side of the pennines, alder hey and sheffield Childrens Hospital is treated children with bleeding disorders at the height of the aids crisis. Alder hey treated its children almost exclusively with large full commercial concentrates. Utterly inappropriate. Almost all of the children were infected with aids. By contrast, at sheffield, professor sought to minimise exposure to multiple donors by using cryoprecipitate. There was one infection with hiv at sheffield Childrens Hospital. It is still one too many but it is illustrative of the fact that the adoption of different Treatment Practices by Haemophilia Clinicians could have substantially reduced the number of infections. Treatment choices mattered. Take the case of the Haemophilia
To Irans Nuclear facilities. In a social media post, the agencys director general, Rafael Mariano grossi, continued to call for extreme restraint from everybody and said Nuclear Facilities should never be a target in military conflicts. Irans semi official tasnim news agency, which is close to the Islamic Revolutionary guard corps, posted a video with a caption saying, isfahan s nuclear site is completely safe. In the video, a man near the Isfahan Nuclear Technology Centre is seen showing his watch to the camera to indicate the time and date. We can then see several troops standing around what looks like an air defence battery. Reuters news agency is reporting that an unnamed iranian source has said there is no immediate plan for retaliation. As well as these explosions in iran, they were reported too in Southern Syria apparently from missiles targeting radar sites. And there were also blasts in iraq in both the Capital Baghdad and babil province to the south. Israel had promised to re
Good evening. The un Secretary General and other World Leaders have called for restraint in the middle east, after whats believed to have been an Israeli Attack on iran overnight. Us Officials Say israel was responsible for a missile strike. The Israeli Government hasnt officially commented. Iran says the attack didnt cause any damage and indicated there would be no retaliation. There were reports of explosions in syria, iraq, and most significantly in iran, in the province of isfahan, in the middle of the country. The area is home to an airbase and several nuclear sites, as well as a missile factory. Us officials called it an israeli missile strike. Iranian media said three small drones were involved. In a moment well hear from our North America editor sarah smith, In Washington, and our chief International Correspondent, lyse doucet. But first, Lucy Williamson is injerusalem. Well, there are reports tonight that israels Defence Minister has been having conversations with his us count
the more you had, the more risky it was is that part of your concern? well, absolutely. i mean, i think every haemophiliac, just about, at treloar s, was infected with hepatitis c. non a, non b. i don t think hardly anyone escaped it. and then on top of that, you had hiv, as well. if you could imagine being at a boarding school and being in the dormitories and you re reading in the paper about hepatitis and hiv, we d all discuss it between ourselves. so there was a genuine panic. if we didn t go for our prophylaxis appointments, we would either get dragged out of school lessons, because you d missed your appointment. and if you did it so many times, you got black marks and things like this. being called out of class for blood tests that i missed. and then another blood test that i ve missed. and when you re called out of a class at that age, you feel punished, don t you? and of course, you ve lost school friends and that must be very difficult? yeah, it is.
at the school in hampshire, treloar s, for haemophiliac pupils, and it involved a controversial product called factor viii, made up largely from blood from foreign donors, some of whom were paid. it was effective for haemophiliacs, but it was at high risk of viruses like hepatitis c, and we ve heard from former pupils that factor viii worked well for them dealing with air condition, but they were being called in for more and more doses, called in for more and more doses, called in for more and more doses, called in for more and more blood tests, they didn t know why, and it only became elated that there was no consent given for what was a trial. tonight the school has put out a new statement, saying that staff and students had placed theirfaith in the treatment because it was provided by an nhs clinic at the school and it is shocking to hear that some may have received unsafe treatment, and the school has added its voice to calls for a full compensation scheme to be set up quickly afte
