Send a textCharles MacKenzie who is the president of Infected Blood Australia, a Not-For-Profit group that supports those that were affected by tainted blood, has spent his entire life campaigning for justice on behalf of the Australian victims of the infected blood scandal. In this first introductory episode of the investigative series that will expose the crimes of the Australian Red Cross we hear about the scale of the problem and about how Australians can now gather round and help us end the coverup and kick the criminals out of managing the blood supply.

Send a textWhen Humanitarians Kill is a podcast investigation into the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood’s criminal coverup of Australia’s deadliest medical scandal HIV & HepC contaminated blood.  For the first time ever our audience will be able to listen to interviews from some of the tens of thousands of Australians who are infected & affected by this atrocity and hear how for decades those impacted have been denied help by the Australian Red Cross the managers of Australia’s blood supply.  Each episode will also feature evidence that we will be encouraging the public and any budding ‘internet sleuths’ to help us make sense of together so we can get to the bottom of what really lay behind the worst public health failing in Australian history.
