"A life sentence" infected blood in Workington

Available for over a year

A West Cumbrian man, who was infected with contaminated blood, has accused the government of dragging its feet when it comes to compensation. Stuart Hall, from Workington, contracted Hepatitis C from a blood transfusion in the 1980s while being treated for leukaemia. Ministers say they'll give more detail of their plans for compensation after the publication of an independent report into infected blood due next month. Photo: Getty.
