FEDERAISF Frosinone Latina

Misprints and blunders of the medical commission of the Cecchignola in Rome in assessing the compensation. In Latina, the case of a woman who has infected dozens of patients for 16 years. Clinical trials on humans also emerge from the archives of the Trento trial, including a 12-year-old

Sometimes a typo is enough to reopen the painful chapter of infected blood. Take albumin For immunoglobulin, exchange protein And antibody. Other times only the desperate obstinacy of the victim manages to make its way through the omissions of the bureaucrat on duty, the negligence of the doctors and the indifference of the State. To then discover in court - twenty years later - that whoever infected you continued to donate blood, in the same hospital, for the next 16 years, sowing an endless trail of victims. It just happened to Latin. The infected blood scandal continues to pour out cases of very serious clinical errors, stories of human horrors without justice that crowd the infernal landing on which tens of thousands of people are already stationed at the mercy of the disease and waiting for a promised indemnity that it never comes. And while the trial of those responsible for the biggest Italian scandal is at a standstill and risks the prescription, new cases of infected people and left alone in their match between life and death emerge from thousands of medical records filed in the files and still sealed.

There are also tests of viral inactivation tests conducted by pharmaceutical companies directly on people, where they were believed to be practiced only on animals. And instead in the clinical trial there were also children, completely unaware, then infected after seven or years. Their cases add to the thousands of stories with Kafkaesque traits that pass for the removed contagion and for the ordeal of those who seek justice from an ever-minority position
