Victims of the scandal said they had been "gaslit for generations"
Infected blood victims say they feel "vindicated" as a long-awaited report revealed how authorities covered up the scandal and repeatedly exposed victims to unacceptable risks.
Sue Wathen, who has no idea when she was infected with hepatitis C after her blood records "disappeared", said the scandal was "an abuse by people who were supposedly there to care for us".
Andy Evans, chairman of the Tainted Blood campaign group, said: "We've been gaslit for generations and this report today brings an end to that."
Victims are calling for "meaningful redress", with compensation expected to cost up to £10 billion.
