In the mid-1980s, public health officials throughout the world discovered that nearly half the hemophiliac population, and tens of thousands of blood transfusion recipients, had been infected with HIV-infected blood. This book provides a comparative perspective on the political, legal, and social struggles that emerged in response to the HIV contamination of the industrialized world's blood supply. The book includes four comparative essays that shed light on the cultural, institutional, and economic dimensions of the HIV blood disaster.
