In 1990, medical politicians conducted a hostile takeover of the Wadley Research Institute and Blood Bank, in fear of the economic consequences of doing a hepatitis C lookback. That ended 56 years of service by my father in 1975, then myself in 1990, as the medical directors/CEOs of the principle blood bank in Dallas Texas. In the 1980s, AIDS, then hepatitis C viruses were discovered. Blood banks began screening donations for these viruses to protect patients receiving the blood. But what about patients who were infected by transfusions before screening tests were developed?
