1. My mother was infected with Hep C from this.
As the result of a transfusion following a miscarriage. Treatment has successfully eradicated the virus, thankfully.

2. I'm so glad for her.

That she cleared the virus that is. Not glad that she got it in the first place. She got it from the prison blood products? Is she in Canada?

3. During my early years on message boards, I heard a little about this.
From the freepers. Is this a Clinton scandal?

4. He was the governor of Arkansas at the time.
But I don't know if it's a "Clinton scandal". I do know that it's a tainted blood scandal that and that blood infected with HIV and HCV was sold to Switzerland, Spain, Japan ,Italy and Canada. People all over are still dying. People are still suing.

6. Clinton scandal
Depends on how deeply he was involved in this; ie whether or not he knew and kept it silent because he did benefit personally. If you'd believe freepers, Clinton is personally responsible for everything that went wrong during his presidency - and for what went wrong during the presidency of his successor.

Same thing with Mena airport (CIA narcotics trafficking) - in spite of the fact that the Mena issue exists since long before Clinton, and still exists. Freepers would have you believe it was a project personally managed by Clinton.

5. In the the case of factor(s) 8 and 9 for hemophilia
treatment it is not just a prison system scandal. If any one has ever "donated" plasma for money that is what the plasma is used for. The company that does this commercially has changed it's name 3 times in the past 10 years, it has been Cention, Aventis, and now ZLB plasma services, it is the SAME company and it's parent is Bayer drugs.
