TD fears hep C files ended up in landfill
Labour TD Kathleen Lynch expressed concern the records include files on women who were infected with hepatitis C via the anti-D vaccine in the 1970s and 1980s.
The Cork North Central TD said some victims seeking compensation for the infection had been told the records were missing and so could not prove the link to the vaccine. The dumping of sensitive medical records presented a significant breach of privacy.
