The plasma product Factor VIII was heralded in the 1960s as a miracle treatment that helped those with haemophilia to live fuller lives. By the 1980s it was killing them in their thousands, as the product from the US was riddled with hepatitis and AIDs. The investigative journalist Cara McGoogan pieces together the sorry tale of medical negligence, commercial greed and government failures in The Poison Line: A True Story of Death, Deception and Infected Blood. In many other countries inquiries have been held, compensation paid out and individuals sent to prison, but the victims and their families in the UK are still waiting, 40 years later. Jason Evans was just 4 years old when his father died after being infected by HIV in Factor VIII. He has dedicated his adult life to getting to the truth and is now awaiting the findings of the public inquiry which began in 2018, and is expected to publish its report in March 2024. The public health expert and physician Dr Gabriel Scally is a veteran of medical inquires – from the Bristol heart scandal to the Cervical Smear failures in Ireland. He has spent his career arguing for a system of clinical governance with a duty of candour placed not just on organisations but individual medics too. He tells Tom Sutcliffe why he thinks scandals and cover-ups continue to happen, and whether a public inquiry is the best way to get to the truth. Producer: Katy Hickman

Cuir siar ócáidí teaghlaigh Nollag go dtí an samhradh. Public health expert Dr. Tá an saineolaí sláinte poiblí an Dr. Gabriel Scally is petitioning the Irish and Westminster governments to ask families not to come together this Christmas, and postpone social events until the Summer. Gabriel Scally ag achainí ar Rialtas na hÉireann agus rialtas Westminster iarraidh ar theaghlaigh gan teacht le chéile an Nollaig seo, agus ócáidí sóisialta a chur siar go dtí an Samhradh. To compensate for this, people should be given another two days of public holiday, he says. Mar chúiteamh air seo, ba cheart dhá lá eile saoire poiblí a thabhairt do dhaoine, a deir sé. By then, Gabriel Scally says we will have help from the vaccine being distributed to the public. Faoin am sin, deir Gabriel Scally go mbeidh cúnamh againn ón vaicsín bheith á dháileadh ar an bpobal. He warned that it was not worthwhile to impose restrictions following an increase in the number of cases and that a sensible level of restraint should be maintained consistently. Thug sé foláireamh nach fiú srianta a chur i bhfeidhm tar éis ardú ar líon na gcásanna agus gur cheart leibhéal ciallmhar srianta a choinneáil ar bun go seasta. Ireland has done well in keeping the number of cases low, he said, and this is justified in keeping the restrictions in place over the Christmas period. Rinne Éire go maith maidir le líon na gcásanna a choinneáil íseal agus údar é seo, a dúirt sé, leis na srianta a fhágeail mar atá thar thréimhse na Nollag. If this advice is not followed, there will be a huge increase in cases in the new year, according to Dr. Beidh borradh mór sna cásanna san athbhliain mura gcloífear leis an gcomhairle seo, dar leis an Dr. Scally. Scally. From this Friday, three families will be allowed to get together and will be allowed to travel around the country for three weeks until 6 January.

On Friday Leo Varadkar will address the nation regarding what potential measures might be lightened past the 5th of May, as Ireland closes in on its 7th week of Lockdown. As the days draw, closer vast changes are seemingly less likely, as testing and ICU figures are still not close enough from their desired level. Episode 21 of the podcast looks at what exactly needs to fall into place before Ireland begins to move in that direction, but also how the country is fairing with life in their 2-kilometre radius so far. Dr Akke Velinga is an epidemiologist and the joint research lead of the Corona Citizens' Science study - a countrywide survey conducted by research teams at NUI Galway (NUIG) and Dublin City University which looked at the impact COVID 19 and its associated restrictions has had on daily lives of people around the country. I spoke to her about the findings of the results, and what her predictions are for life after May 5th. Ian also spoke to Dr Gabriel Scally, Public Healthy Physician and President of Epidemiology & Public Health at the Royal Society of Medicine about where Ireland finds itself now, and what must take place before life slowly trickles back to any sort of normality?Produced by UrbanMediaHosted by Ian DoyleMusic by Psykick See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
