Those responsible for the infected blood scandal should be behind bars, Andy Burnham says

GREATER Manchester mayor Andy Burnham demanded that those responsible for the infected blood scandal face prison yesterday. 

Nearly 30,000 people were infected with HIV and hepatitis C through contaminated blood products in the 1970s and 1980s. More than 3,000 people have died since.

An inquiry into the scandal is due to publish its final report on Monday.
