ITV to make drama about contaminated blood scandal

ITV has announced plans to produce a drama series about the contaminated blood scandal that occurred in the UK in the 1970s and 1980s. The scandal saw thousands of people given blood products infected with HIV and Hepatitis C, resulting in the deaths of hundreds and leaving many others with lifelong health issues.

The series will explore the impact of the scandal on both the victims and their families, as well as the medical professionals and government officials involved. It aims to shine a light on the injustices suffered by those affected and to raise awareness of the ongoing fight for justice and compensation.

ITV has assembled a talented team of writers, directors, and actors to bring this important story to the screen. The series is expected to air in the coming months and hopes to spark conversations and provoke action around this tragic chapter in British history.
