Infected blood compensation claimants say they must repeatedly prove eligibility

People affected by the UK's infected blood scandal say they are being required to track down decades-old medical records to prove they qualify for compensation, according to The Guardian.

The paper reported the case of Suzanne Morgan, whose mother died after a routine blood transfusion led to a hemorrhage, nine months after she had gone into hospital for gallstones. The Guardian said this is occurring despite recommendations from a public inquiry into the scandal.
