YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Former Health Secretary Andy Burnham has called the use by the NHS of contaminated blood in the 70s and 80s a "criminal cover-up". More than 2,000 deaths have been linked to the scandal - and many more were infected. Evan Davis spoke to the co-founder of the group Tainted Blood, Andy Evans, who told him his story.

Newsnight is the BBC's flagship news and current affairs TV programme - with analysis, debate, exclusives, and robust interviews.
